      I watched the build of this car on Restoration Garage, built by the Guild of Automotive Restorers in Bradford, Ontario, Canada.
      Built on a Bugatti chasis, this was built from pictures only, as the original concept car disappeared shortly after the Paris Autoshow in 1935.
      It took them several years & millions of dollars to complete, a work of art & superb craftsmanship.

      @walksoftly -- Oh, I think I saw parts of that show and how much work went into it. Seem to remember something on the show about them fabricating the curved front fenders and how they had to be perfect or it would show (due to the stylized shape). Great Show!!
