1930 Bugatti Type 49 Spec Sheet with hand drawn Bodywork (!)

Here we have a vintage August 1930 specification sheet for the Bugatti T49 3,300 Liters chassis.

It lists all the relevant details and at the bottom it shows a side view of the chassis with relevant dimensions.

What makes this particular sheet so interesting is that on the chassis, a very sporty 2 door cabriolet body has been drawn.

The design most probably comes from talented coachwork designer as the lines have been penned down with decisiveness and not a single correction has been made.

The design discards the existing bonnet line which is lowered and extended.

The drawing is pretty detailed as it shows the cabriolet roof mechanism, door handles, bumpers and spare wheel.

Not a rush-rush job. Therefore, we believe that this body could actually have been built.

The sheet comes from a long defunct Bugatti concessionaire in France's Brittany (Bretagne) so it could very well have been for a customer of that dealer.

Is there anybody who recognizes & can identify this body / coachbuilder or maybe even the car on which it was built?

The sheet measures some 7 x 8.5 inches or 18 x 21.5 cm.

Only 1 pc. available of course.
