This Bugatti Type 57, built in September 1937, was delivered to Letourneur et Marchand to be fitted with this rare two-door, four-seat, three-position cabriolet body. Letourneur et Marchand, located in the Paris suburb of Neuilly-sur-Seine, constructed 19 bodies on the Bugatti Type 57 chassis. This automobile was ordered by Baron George de Cocq, the husband of the Comtesse de Caraman-Chimay, and was delivered to their home in Paris just a few months before the war and then quickly hidden away. After the war, the car was sold to Dr. Milton Roth and taken to the United States. In 2002 its original engine and Cotal gearbox were rebuilt and it was fully restored. The car was shown at Pebble Beach in 2004 and was Second in Class. It has since moved to Paris, been refreshed in Holland and then returned to the United States.
