Title: Re: Zoute Bertone Post by: adrian donovan on 30 October, 2014, 09:18:26 AM The Zoute rally looks really good - a lot of interesting Italian cars there. Perhaps we should make it a destination/date on the calendar? - I fancy going there next year!
Title: Re: Zoute Bertone Post by: stanley sweet on 30 October, 2014, 09:54:21 AM Does look very good indeed. The black Bugatti pictured looks very much like the one owned by Bugatti's son Michel, who lives about 15kms from me. He brings it to the local show each year. I was very surprised when I learned who he was as I didn't imagine Ettore to have such a young looking son. He was from Ettore's second marriage, born in 1945. He spends all weekend each year talking to people about it and never seems to get fed up with all the questions. By coincidence I had produced a Bugatti illustration in the past, so last year I took a print along and asked if he'd sign it, which he did. It's very nice to see a Bugatti signature on it and I'm glad I thought of doing it.
