COVER: After seeing our cover car, a 1939 Bugatti by Figoni et Falaschi at Pebble Beach, we asked owner Ernest Stern if we could photograph it for our centerfold. This one-off Type 57C, which many readers saw at Hershey, has existed in near obscurity until recently. Story begins on page 34. Photographer: Dennis Adler.
