Furthermore, the car was driven by Tazio Nuvolari, the Flying Mantuan, and fellow Italian Piero Taruffi at Brooklands in 1933.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_695324\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-695324\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/NuvoHoweMcC_51121_\u00a9BrooklandsSociety.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-695324\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/NuvoHoweMcC_51121_\u00a9BrooklandsSociety.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"\" height=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/NuvoHoweMcC_51121_\u00a9BrooklandsSociety.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/NuvoHoweMcC_51121_\u00a9BrooklandsSociety-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/NuvoHoweMcC_51121_\u00a9BrooklandsSociety-100x66.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/NuvoHoweMcC_51121_\u00a9BrooklandsSociety-770x508.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/NuvoHoweMcC_51121_\u00a9BrooklandsSociety-293x193.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-695324\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tazio Nuvolari in Bugatti Type 51, chassis 51121, with Earl Howe (right) and Hugh McConnell, Brooklands scrutineer (left). (photo: Courtesy of The Brooklands Society)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Campaigned in the national color of British racing green with Howe\u2019s distinctive blue and silver stripes along the side of the bodywork, the Grand Prix racer was also visually notable by its large fuel filler caps fitted from its earliest days. In addition to Nuvolari, Taruffi and Howe himself, the car was also piloted in period by The Hon. Brian Lewis and Clifton Penn-Hughes.<\/p>\n<p>The successor to the legendary Type 35, the Bugatti Type 51 is famous in its own right but also has a fascinating link to American engineering by way of the Miller race cars. Ettore Bugatti was so impressed by Harry Miller\u2019s twin-cam engines that he traded three of his own Type 43 cars for two Miller 91 cars. Bringing them back to his factory in Molsheim, Bugatti had them dismantled, learned of their technology, and then built his own version. Thus the Type 51 was born.<\/p>\n<p>As ever with Bugatti, the aesthetics in every form compliment the power of this American-inspired, Franco-Italian supercharged 2.3-liter twin-cam race car. The result is a beauty capable of producing 160hp and a speed of 130mph.<\/p>\n<p>Never publicly offered for sale, in the present ownership for more than 30 years, unseen publicly for more than 20 years, and with just two owners since the 1950s, this Bugatti will cross the auction block at the 2016 Bonhams Quail Lodge sale during Monterey Classic Car Week.<\/p>\n<p>For further information,
