The Delahaye you see in the photo is an original ’30s or bears the signature of Figoni & Falaschi on the body. No, the copy which will be exhibited at the 2010 Pebble Beach Retro Auto (as distinct from the most famous Concours d’Elegance, ed), is a model built in New Jersey, Delahaye USA. It reminds us of the golden age of remakes based on vintage Buick or Lincoln, between the ’70s and ’80s. In those years, some of the most famous models made in the ’30s by houses such as Mercedes, Rolls-Royce, Bugatti, or precisely Delahaye, who at the time were built in a number of units equal to the fingers of one hand, they saw blossoming a new passion for them. Passion, however, in most cases not worthy heirs bore the prestige of the original. The case of this newly Delahaye Bella Figura Bugnotti Coupé is instead quite different. So that the reconstruction was judged worthy of one of the most “in” for the classic California. The car, despite its label, was created as a tribute to the Bugatti Type 57 S 1937.

The ‘Cuda AAR-10 is based on top of a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda, and keeps the basic lines that made the Barracuda one of the most sought after muscle cars of the era intact. It was designed by Reuben Zammit of Racer X Design, with the help of David J. Meyer who brought the insight on the history of the ‘Cuda. Styling: It is all about mixing the old with the new. The body styling only concentrates on small subtle changes to keep the car’s elegant lines intact. Saying that, there are a lot of changes that are not so obvious at first glance. That is what takes this apart from other modified Plymouths. Side: The C-pillars have been sharpened together with a thicker roof line giving the car a more modern look. The side exhausts that were a trademark on the original 1970 AAR ‘Cuda are now a smooth part of the body. The side stripes are a new mixture of the hockey stripe and the AAR ’Cuda originals. The wheels are a custom design for the car. All these changes together with other minor changes like the handles and redesigned arches all compliment the already beautiful lines of the barracuda, making it look fresh without looking overdone. Rear: The rear end incorporates a new light panel and lights, together with a diffuser that will aid the AAR-10 gain more downforce. The rear wings are more squared off to continue with the rear bumper and provide a larger bottom area for the diffuser. Front: The whole front end has been modified but kept flowing with the rest of the car. Most people will notice the ‘71 Cuda inspired front grille matched to custom single headlights....
