This expert volume examines the engineering, design, and modeling of this classic sportscar through the years—fully illustrated with color photos.     Innovative car designer Ettore Bugatti changed the history of both motorsports and engineering with the legendary T35.  Introduced at the Grand Prix of Lyon in 1924, its clever engine design, new suspension thinking, and distinct body style marked the beginning of a new era in car racing.   Automotive journalist, industrial designer and Bugatti expert Lance Cole pays tribute to this iconic automobile in a detailed yet engaging commentary. Fully illustrated with color photos, this volume chronicles the story of the T35's design and evolution. For the car modeling enthusiast, Cole also details the modeling options in synthetic materials and die cast metals.
