Prototypes cars are always difficult to identify
because of their hectic lives. Their lives pass from the tumult of media
to the discretion of the development phases and at last, often ends
inglorious against a crash test wall. However, a part of the Campogalliano's
prototypes have survived. |

In mid 1991, a complete re-study of the car, now called EB110, was done by Materazzi and Benedini, both in technical or aesthetic terms. The Benedini prototypes were numbered from C6 (C for carbon chassis) to C16 and were built from mid 1991 to late 1992. The exact number of GT prototypes is difficult to know because some of them were destructed for crash tests or refurbish and then sold as production models. Around 10 EB110 prototype cars were built before the GT production model. An epowood design study with the almost definitive EB110 shape was built on the aluminium chassis number 6. |

The Supersport
evolution (SS) was first developped on GT chassis (the first one is GT 008)
but the early story of this model remains still unclear. Some SS chassis
numbers have been recorded but very few informations are available on
these cars, wich may never have been made. It's possible that other SS
chassis was never numbered and others were cloned. It will be extremely
difficult to shed light on this phase of development. An epowood design
study quite close to the Supersport EB110 shape was built on the aluminium
chassis number 7. |

At last, I can
list here the chassis numbers dedicated to the Bugatti sedan car, the
EB112, that never reached production step. After the
epowood design study car, the first motorized chassis was the famous burgundy
red prototype from Giugiaro. Then, another Epowood model was made, with
a modification of the rear of the car, with different lights localized
on the body instead on the bumper. At last, 2 prototype models (a dark
anthracite and a black ones) were finished after the bankruptcy, probably
at the Monaco Racing Team. |
