Bugatti Brescia
Bugatti
built the 4-cylinder type 13 already before the war but the in 1920 the
production of the 16-valve version started. It was called the Brescia
after the success there in 1921 and so were all later cars of the type
13 and the touring types 22 and 23. 2000 were built up to 1926. The car
in these pictures is a "Brescia modifiée" with longer chassis
and relocated steering box to move the driver forward. The 1500 cc
engine delivers around 40 B.H.P. to the 4-speed gearbox. This late model
has much-needed 4-wheel brakes.
