Noted by the greats of the industry as the finest sculptor of the automobile, Stanley Wanlass crafted this Vanvooren Bugatti Type 57C (modeled after the famous Shah of Iran Bugatti) with a great sense of movement, class, and sophistication. The sculpture features a marbleized finish, applied using a very difficult patented process, which adds a uniqueness to this limited-edition bronze.
