Sleek: the Bugatti Type 57 & Citroën Traction Avant

"Sleek" is not what AL typically asks for in a vehicle: the 1951 Chevrolet pickup is perhaps our ideal set of wheels.

Nonetheless, the 1934 Bugatti Type 57 here at the Louwman Museum  in the NL was an eye-popper. Aluminum body on the Type 57 frame. 135hp (less than my Volvo) Top speed 155km/h.

The Europeans at their best tend to do "sleek" rather well, for example the Citroën Traction-avant.

Apologies for the chopped-off photo of the Bug (below):  I was wrangling two 6-year-old criminals doing their skillful best to get us banished from the museum.
