143 Emc B&g 1957 Bugatti Type 252 Coupe Michelotti Le #175/250-very Rare-new

1:48 EMC B&G 1957 BUGATTI TYPE252 COUPE MICHELOTTI LE #175/250-HIGH DETAIL-VERY RARE-NEW. In 1956, Michelotti submitted two designs to Roland Bugatti-one for a roadster, and one for this coupe. Working capitol was thin, and only two prototypes were produced: A roadster and a bare chassis-both now part of the Schlumpf Collection in France. This highly detailed 1:48 scale replica of the 1957 Bugatti Type 252 coupe was created by collaboration-commissioned by Vladimir Krivoshev in Moskow and Mikhail Bashmashnikov of B&G Historic Line Models in the U.

Then contracted to EMC Models in Kiev, who used Michelotti's three-view drawings, plus takeoffs from the built roadster and chassis to create this hand-built replica, in a limited edition of only 250 examples. The model comes mounted on a wood base with a serial-numbered plaque. It is comprised of resin castings, with machined aluminum wheel rims, headlamp bezels, signal lamps and exhaust tips.

Numerous photo-etched parts were used, including perfect-scale window surrounds, and microscopic "EB" emblems behind the front wheels. Door handles, tail lamp surrounds and bumpers are nickel-plated brass on rich blue hand-polished paint. Correctly-engraved head and fog lamp lenses and raised lettering on proper-tread-pattern tires are nice examples of one-off workmanship. A dull silver dash wears gauges that simulate glass covers, behind a jewel-like, accurate, steering wheel. This exceptional model and case will arrive in a plain box with no labels.

Always stored in a conditioned space. Photos are taken through the acrylic case.

I didn't remove the case because it's tacked onto the wood base. You will receive the exact item shown in the photos, so photographs are part of the item description. If you see an issue in my listing, please bring it to my attention so I can correct it.
