Bugatti 'Aerolithe'
Only four Type 57 Atlantic Coupes were ever produced by Bugatti. One of them went to Parisian entrepreneur Jacques Holzshuh, before meeting its end on a railway crossing. Another was delivered new to Baron Victor Rothschild and is owned today by American collector Peter Mullin. A third is currently in the hands of Ralph Lauren, while the fourth? Nobody knows. One of the great mysteries of the car world is the whereabouts of ‘La Voiture Noire’: Jean Bugatti’s very own Type 57 Atlantic.
But the car that previewed the lot of them is the one above. Sort of. It’s a rebodied, restored Bugatti ‘Aerolithe’; a prototype first shown off at the 1935 Paris Motor Show.
A man named David Grainger from The Guild of Automotive Restoration was commissioned to recreate the car that paved the way for the most famous pre-war car ever built. He had the original chassis of the Aerolithe – number 57104 – as well as its original 3.3-litre eight-cylinder engine, and rear axle. But no body.
Indeed, David’s team at The Guild had but 11 photos to work from… and had to adhere to coachbuilding standards of the day. Which means they had to fashion the body from magnesium, which is – by all accounts – incredibly difficult to work with. They spent years riveting and shaping the panels into that simply gorgeous Aerolithe form.

What a difference 90 years makes juxtaposition of Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantiс, 1934 & Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 57 One of One, 2024. A one-off Chiron has been created that references the classic Type 57SC Atlantiс, an icon of the 1930s. The car has been commissioned as a 70th birthday present for a woman whose husband is also a Bugatti owner. She wanted her car to be a tribute to the Type 57SC Atlantiс and worked with Jascha Straub, Lead Designer Sur Mesure at Bugatti, to make her vision a reality

Landoscar (Lando/Oscar) Mafia AU
Lando is the head/ceo to the biggest most dangerous mob. They kill and are ruthless and feared. Lando's personality is cold, kind of insane, madman, but he's kind of a family man yk? They have their little family in the mob (can be any of the grid tbh) Lando's protective of. His caring sweet personality is reserved for them.
Oscar is Lando's (overworked) secretary/personal assistant, (quite possible the best in the world) who Lando has the biggest soft spot for, (aged up characters maybe cuz Oscar's been Lando's assistant for a good few years that they're close, practically know everything about eachother better than the other)
Uptill now it's just been longing glances between them, Lando's too afraid to risk it, Oscar's too important to him and if the enemy finds out... And Oscar believes Lando would never love him like that.
But then, Oscar gets kidnapped by the enemy, who has 2 reasons to do so. 1. Get on Lando's nerves, and 2. For more...personal reasons (he's obsessed with Oscar to the point it's creepy, he's been wanting Oscar to join him for years, Oscar's always declined).
He sends messages and videos to Lando, that he's finally got his hands on Oscar, Lando is PISSED. He unleashes his inner mad man and everything is in hold untill he can get his Oscar back to him, he's never liked the enemy for the creepy way the guy was with Oscar. He does everything and i mean everything to get Oscar back and possibly kill the enemy.
Oscar's a tough cookie, he doesn't waver to the guys attempts to get information out of him, or his creepiness. He's loyal to Lando and he knows Lando, trusts him to save him.
The guy becoming impatient, reduces to physical methords to make Oscar break and talk, and sends the videos of Oscar hurt, scared, and in pain, to Lando to get a rise out of him. Big mistake. Lando is livid. That guy is as good as dead.
Que Lando saving Oscar, with the entire team behind him, and mass murdering the enemy base. Realization of feelings and maybe some smut at the end.
DW: Jealous Lando, violence (idm gore as long as it's not tooo descriptive) angst, top Lando, fluff.
DNW: bottom Lando, m-death.

As my following grows and as I meet more and more people who have rats, had rats, know someone who has/had rats, and love rats...
increasingly I wonder if/when a day will come... a day that I'll express rat enjoyment to someone and they'll enthusiastically ask me if I've heard of This Funnie Little Rodent Blog they like, figuring I may already know it or will enjoy it if not...
and it's.. my blog... and then I have to come out as popular Rat Tumblr blogger that they follow and now know IRL.......
#/lh#I'm saying this like it's some big deal but I'm just exaggerating for comedic effect adjfgsbkdfj#no idea what the likelihood on that looks like. based on statistics of people estimating statistics? probably likelier than we all think#anyway that time I posted a survey for a university research project here and you all wound up comprising 2/3 of our sample was so funny#I had to actually say in an academic research paper that one possible flaw in our study#was bias that may result from 2/3 the sample having come from a niche and extremely specific demographic of people#due to the fact that they flocked in from One Of The Researchers' Substantial Online Following Centered Around A Particular Theme#And Selected Specifically To Have Only A Certain Kind Of Person On It Via Boundaries And Blocking#literally you all made up 98/150 respondents (but that's assuming all digital responses were from y'all-- we had 52 paper responses)#ah but the research symposium was the best. in the paper I was able to remain that generic about it#but at the research symposium. well it's a glorified science fair. so participants have their own stations set up and observers tour them#as the participants speak to their audience; directly providing a summary and then answering any questions#some of the audience/observers are faculty and most are fellow students#so real scholarly scientific types yeah? so they had questions. thoughtful questions#long story short I confessed to numerous listeners throughout the day that the sample's bizarre gender ratio is probably my fault#around 57% women; 21% nonbinary adults; 17% men-- an unusual proportion#so I had to academically tell my professors... underclassmen..... my classmates....... acquaintances.... foes..........#... that I'm big famous in Rat#and it was so. djkjSBCJXHQKRIGAJFSHF

One Day in the Shop...September 20, 2013
A new and recurring post topic: What was going on in the shop that day?
In 2005, I was fortunate to find a place working at Phil Reilly & Co in Corte Madera, CA. Reilly’s was known around the world as one of the best restoration shops in the United States, a reputation hard won over many years of delivering cars that worked. A lot of shops are known for producing cars that can win at Pebble…
