Thanks, Liz.
That blue car was a 1913 model 22 Bugatti owned by Alan Travis.
He told an interesting story, that what most people call, Bugatti Blue, was actually the color that Ettore Bugatti's wife requested the cars be painted after her favorite brand of French cigarettes.
Here's a picture of Alan holding up a pack of those exact brand period cigarettes.
I asked him what was harder to find, the car or an nos pack of 100 year old cigarettes. Lol!

My son and I went for a New Year's Eve ride...his new Panther has him excited to ride so we do with me in my '41...in fact I saw him rummaging through my scrap lumber today and then see that he built a small ramp to jump his Panther. He thinks the front springer is the bomb. Too bad I didn't get a picture.
