1937 Bugatti

Rare 1937 Bugatti found locked in garage could fetch millions of dollars today, NEWCASTLE reports.



The owner, Dr. Harold Carr 1937bought the Bugatti, won the 1937 Le Mans 24-hour race, in 1955.

Mr. Carr lives near Newcastle, had no children and the cars now belong to his nieces and nephews. Other people did know about the Bugatti, said a nephew who did not want his name used.

"We just can't believe it," he said. "It's amazing, really. It's worth so much because he hasn't used it for 50 years. People must have known because he got letters from all over the country. He got notes pushed through his door. People traveled to try and convince him to sell the car."
