The prototype Bugatti Type 13 was one of the first cars with four-valve technology. This astonishing engine, combined with a good road handling, made the Type 13 a perfect racing package. In the early 1920s the little Type 13 was very successful in many racing venues in Europe. A highlight was the Voiturette Grand Prix at Brescia in 1921 taking places first through fourth. Based on these victories, any subsequent four-valve Bugatti models received the nickname "Brescia."

The basis of this model by Michael Stegmann was constructed on a computer in 3D CAD and printed in 3D using a 3D printing process. The prints was supplemented  with brass parts and Evergreen styrene profiles. The wheels are from a Ricko/Busch BMW Dixi model.
