BUGATTI T37A
RECONSTRUCTION BY PUR SANG, ARGENTINA
Serial number : 40357
Administrative document: without - Deprived of technical control
The Bugatti name was already known at the beginning of the 20th century, but it is thanks to Ettore Bugatti that it will have a wide worldwide echo with the creation of his automobile brand and the production of revolutionary cars in terms of design and performance.
In 1924, the legendary Type 35 made its mark on the racetrack, and the following year saw the production of the Type 37. These were the first racing cars to be marketed in a catalog.
The Bugatti T37A was built in about 280 examples between 1926 and 1930. It is almost identical to the T35 in terms of chassis and bodywork. It is equipped with a 4-cylinder engine and metal spoked wheels while the T35 has an 8-cylinder engine and aluminum wheels. Despite the difference in power, the T37A will not always remain in the shadow of the T35 on the circuits because on September 9, 1928, the Monegasque Louis Chiron will impose his machine at Monza for the Grand Prix of Italy.
The fervor that the brand and its mythical models arouse is echoed in Argentina and it is in this country that the most emblematic manufacturer of replicas is installed: Pur Sang Argentina. As demonstrated by our model. The T37A model is powered by a 4 cylinder engine of 1500 cm³ compressed. By saving weight, its performance is almost identical to that of models equipped with 8 cylinders.
