Après une petite recherche sur l'internet
The collector Patrick Arnaud visited told him some pieces of history that he has not
verified: only seven T.72 engines were made, this is the n° three (verified).
He knows two other T.72 in USA, property of the same collector (the same who sent
me the photographs and Fact sheet!), member of the American Bugatti Club.
One of these two engines is ex-Marc Nicolosi, the well-known French Bugatti collector.
These engines are incredibly in advance for the time they were created, the technique
is typically Bugatti but miniaturized ! It was a great pleasure to see this engine and touch it !
The smallest Bugatti, measures only 12.66 cc. recently photographed in France,
the one prototype built in 1944.
Dimensions are 24 x 28, plus supercharger and gear driven overhead valve gear.
It was capable of 10,000 RPM.
The detail pictures below speak for themselves, really a very fine piece of engineering!
