These Bugattis have long been my favourite cars. Those alloy wheels are so iconic, and as much pure art as they are wonderfully engineered solutions. The retired aero engineer and designer in me can just look at them for hours. You have an encyclopaedic knowledge of these amazing machines, and probably the best job in the world. Totally agree with you over the laws and freedoms. Sadly the normie sheeple have swallowed the official narratives, accepted the most draconian tyranny ever unleashed on Humanity, and adopted their pointless face nappies as comfort blankets - against what? We still have no real way of knowing! Thank you for sharing Peace
While watching this video, I did not encounter any quick speech, preposterous behavior or music. I like it very much and what I appreciate is that you talk about these cars with such passion, and what's better, you only say direct information about this beautiful automotive industry and the history of this brand. Excellent video.
Thank you, Tim. That was utterly fascinating. Can't wait for more detail on your own car - and perhaps a more systematic look at a single engine? Brilliant!
This was amazing. Thank you for sharing your work and knowledge. What a treasure! I've been a Bugatti enthusiast for as long as I can remember. As a designer myself I always appreciated the way Bugatti so beautifully and uncompromisingly unified art and engineering. It seems you are keeping up that tradition. I sincerely hope you plan to make more videos like this. Bravo!
I'm relatively new to Bugatti lore and just bought Conway's book "Grand Prix Bugatti" to educate myself, but you managed to distill Bugatti's grand prix engine development into an enjoyable 10 minute video. I almost feel like an instant expert- ok, not really, but I could maybe hold my own against the average gearhead on the subject. Thanks!
Those who voted for Mr. Johnston and friends must reap what they sowed, it's unfortunate for those who didn't. That said great video on this car and look forward to watching the rest, I have subscribed and informed a friend who is a Bugatti fanatic. Thank you.
Glad I found your site I was watching Jay Leon's Garage and he introduced Bugatti and his cars. I am now a fan love these cars. Before I leave this planet I what one.😊
Great to see Tim. Love your UA-cam thanks for taking the time. Would so love to be able to afford a T35. Have an idea to build a replica but no chance of me doing it to your standards. Please keep up the good work on the videos. All the best William Redman 2 Forty One Ltd.
Enjoyed your videos Tim, you are a wealth of knowledge. Hope life is feeling more optimistic for you since the world has called down a bit. I know exactly how you feel, freedom is not to be trifled with.
I love this video. The casual share of his in-depth knowledge surrounded by what is arguably some of the most relevant vehicles in modern history casually in pieces, getting worked on, as a normal car would be. I'm feeling like if I'm being shown the queen's underwear and realizing she's just a normal human being... but she likes using panties... idk Absolutely fascinating. Subscribed. Teach us more, Master.
Audio turned up to max, can at times barely hear what is said. Tried it on my phone and on a PC , same result. Turned captions on but that distracts from the picture.
Given that the T51 engine is capable of lots more power, is more torquey, does not suffer from the cooling and cracking issues of the T35 engine, why was the T55 a sales flop when its earlier counterpart the T43 was a success?
Well, I guess the Great Depression could be one of the reasons why. By the 1930s, the effects of the depression is hitting European countries, so I guess most of the prospective customers ended up trying to save their money. Also, another one could be new competition. The then-new Alfa Romeo 8C family is the Italian counterpart to the Bugattis; 8C 2300 "Monza" countered the Bugatti Type 51, and the 8C 2300 sportscars competed with the Type 55. And the sporting successes of the Alfa Romeos probably contributed to the whole thing, just as the dominance of Bugatti in the mid-to-late 1920s probably played a role in their sales.
Hello, excuse me, do anybody know where can I get the blue prints of a Bugatti type 51? Is just that I want to restore my own but I don't have the blue prints
Great video Tim! I enjoyed your car and drive at the 81mm. Bugatti and Miller connection was very informative. Thanks!
Bone dry but very interesting video. I could watch this kind of videos all day.
Thanks!
Fascinating Tim, many thanks!
Fascinating Tim - more please! 👍
What a dream. A garage full of golden era Bugatti's under maintenance.. Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge with us. Take care
I just want to say thankyou for putting this together. Fascinating
Wonderful! Thanks for taking the time Tim.
Just love them, seen Bugattis at Prescott in the 1960's always awestuck by the marque . Many thanks for the walk around you aladdins cave.
This was fantastic. As a huge Bugatti fan, this was some really interesting information and history.

I own a Pur Sang 35T, and it gets hard use. More of this please!
Tim, where can I find the machinist drawings and specs to use to cast my own engine as wells build the rest of the car? Thanks in advance .

An Aladdin's cave

So muss eine Autowerkstatt im Himmel aussehen!

At 00:20 on left side of shot.. Is that a Talbot Lago?
Do you have a website? Please.

@@jcgabriel1569 I agree with your points, but I would still expect the T55 to be more successful
250 bhp on 700kg!! Bloody hell bet that's a handful.
Hello, excuse me, do anybody know where can I get the blue prints of a Bugatti type 51? Is just that I want to restore my own but I don't have the blue prints
Thanks Tim, and eventually the CCPVirus will be bad memory of failed government policy.
😳 wtf
pur sang arentina???
No, this is Ivan Dutton's workshops, a well-known restorer of vintage Bugattis for decades.
my dream car is a pur sang typ 35 with 2 tesla motors
