For Sale: 1976 Bugatti Type 35 in Katwijk, Netherlands

Bugatti Type 35 Ruska Kit car, 1976. Six owners, 41,531 km, service books from new.

The Bugatti Type 35 is a legendary icon of motorsport history. Introduced in 1924 by Ettore Bugatti, the Type 35 quickly became famous for its performance on the circuit. With more than 1,000 victories across various races, including the Targa Florio, this classic became the symbol of speed, elegance and innovation. Its distinctive horseshoe grille, wire-spoke wheels and streamlined shape have made the car immortal in the automotive world.

The Type 35 was driven by legendary racers such as Louis Chiron, Rene Dreyfus and Albert Divo, who scored countless victories behind its wheel. The model was revolutionary not only in design but also technically, with its lightweight chassis and powerful eight-cylinder engine, which made it dominant in the motorsport of its era.

This particular kit car, based on a Volkswagen Buggy, is a tribute to the Bugatti Type 35. Built with genuine love for the iconic model, this car is designed to bring the glory days of motorsport back to life, without the eye-watering price tag of the original. Naturally there are differences: many components, such as the suspension, the rear-mounted engine, the steering and the brakes, are unmistakably borrowed from the Volkswagen Beetle.
