This is a reproduction of the original body built on chassis no. 41.111. First owner of no. 41.111 was Armand Esders in 1932,
who ordered a roadster body with no headlights. He said, he never drives at night, so he needs no headlights.
Later, the car was purchased by the French politician "Patrenotre" who orderd to rebody the no. 41.111 in Coupe de Ville style.
With that body, the car still exists today.
The Schlumpf brothers wanted to restore the original body and so they made a reproduction of it, using original Bugatti parts.
The car on the pictures is this reproduction.
(The specifications above are from the original 41.111 Esders Roadster)

Pictures taken in 1997/2009 in the "Cité de l’Automobile – Musée National – Collection Schlumpf" in Mulhouse, France.
