1928 Bugatti Type 35B Navigation
This Bugatti Type 35B is a replica (recreation) built by Crosthwaite & Gardener to visually and dimensionally identical proportions. It was precision-built with over 3,000 components that were manufactured from scratch, and is considered one of the most authentic reproduction Bugatti in existence. It was built in 1999 and finished in Bugatti Racing Blue. Power is from a 130-horsepower, 2.3-liter supercharged inline eight-cylinder engine with nine roller bearings and backed by a four-speed manual gearbox, sending power to the live rear axle. There are eight-spoke alloy wheels and a side-mounted spare.

Recently, the car has campaigned during the Monterey Historics at Laguna Seca, Sonoma, Buttonwillow, Fontana, as well as on the California Mille. The car was displayed at the Riverside Auto Museum as well as presented at the Palm Springs Concours and at Quail Lodge.
