I saw the T46 Veth & Zoon #46293 in the Bonhams tent last friday at Goodwood they are offereing the car for sale at the Paris auction next february this actually got me wondering if there are more Bugatti's body's build by Veth & Zoon does anybody know this? and where could i find more info on Veth & Zoon coachbuilders? |

At least there's a type 44 with a similar body as the one on the 46. If I recall it correct, the customer first ordered the 44 and later wanted something similar, but bigger, hence the 46. I also know of a type 57 with Veth body. If I start searching seriously, I must be able to find to find the copy of Automobile Quarterly containing an article on coachbuilder Veth. Regards, Patrick |

The 57 see bugattiregister.com: 57770 Cannot find the 44 in the register though. I know it too - will look it up later. When I last saw the 46 it was still red, I was quite amazed to see it "pimped": as it is now. There is more info on Veth on http://www.conam.info/veth.htm where the 46 is falsely stated to be a 49. The company still exists: http://www.veth.nl/#GO(/veth.nl/home/geschiedenis.html) (contains also a fault: ever heard of a Hispanoza Suiza) |

The 44 which has a body similar to the T46 is not by Veth (I do not know the coachbuilder maybe from germany?) The T57 is probably the nicest body by Veth on a Bugatti. I do not know about any others than these two. |

hoi patrick yes i already found out about the T57 Berline it is listed here: http://www.coachbuild.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=65 those are all Veth & Zoon cars already so they have 2 "known" Bugatti's listed I have AQ almost complete from 1 till 30 and i have read them all basically, but off the top of my head can't recall a story on Veth & Zoon i should really get those summary issues to look that up but good to know there has been an article about them, now i just want to (re-)read it |

The type 44, also first owner mr. Klos from Yierseke had a body made by Ieteren freres. For many years the property of mr. Eggy de Flines of Amsterdam, now owned by d'Ieteren themselves |

Yes, that is the car, happily not yet '' restored'' like the type 46 with the Veth body. |

I go haywire when they start "restoring" cars ala Ralph Lauren. What's wrong with them people? For me restoration is exactly what the word says: restore it to its original state! |

Conam has updated their site already (!) after I mailed them yesterday evening that the 49 was in fact a 46... EDIT 2: Rutger Booy (of PWC and Conam) informed me that a Conam member is writing a book on Veth (on request by Veth). (I also mailed Veth on the Hispanoza issue but that is still wrong- maybe in e few days...) (will check for the 44's chassisnumber and post tonight if possible) EDIT The 44 is chassis 44637 not by Veth but by D'Ieteren. The T49 was -body-wise a "copy" of the D'Ieteren body made by Veth. The restyling of the 46 must be post-2004. |

I had seen the car in 2003 at Het Loo aswell when it was still red but the car had been restored then aswell at some point, cuz it didn't looked unrestored i think, i should see if i can find those shots again |

So, this Dutch Bugatti, with an almost continuous history in the Netherlands, will it return? Any of the Dutch enthusiasts is going to bid? |
