Lost Bugatti: The World's Most Expensive Car

A Study of Strange

One of WWII's lost treasures was an automobile. The Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic "La Voiture Noire" is estimated to be worth over $100 million USD if it's ever found. Its whereabouts are a mystery because it was hidden during the war to keep it out of Nazi hands, but unlike other hidden Bugattis that were unearthed and restored "The Black Car" stays hidden, teasing treasure hunters with hopes that they might find fortune and glory.

The world's most expensive car requires the world's tallest man. So, joining the podcast for this episode is Tim Donahue. The very tall co-host of Motor Trend TV's Auto/Biography and Auto/Biography: Cold Cases.
