The car is described as "à remettre en route", which means it needs to be put back into running condition. The chassis was delivered in 1994 and the body was custom-built. This suggests that while the car may have been restored or built, it is not currently in running condition and therefore requires reconditioning.

original pour l’occasion.
Ayant une villégiature au Touquet, Mr D.
connait la famille Quetelart
dont deux générations d’architectes ont produit parmi les plus belles
villas du style touquetois dans l’entre-deux guerres.
Louis Quetelart, collectionneur averti de Bugatti est désigné chef de
projet.
