Project Summary

This project is about restoring an AUTOart Bugatti Veyron diecast model I found second-hand for $80.

I believe models like this should not end up as scrap or parts donors. Every piece deserves a second life, especially when it represents such an iconic car.

Since I create restoration content for YouTube, I added some weathering to support the opening story and visual presentation. However, the real damage and missing parts are authentic, and I will show them in detail in my project log.

The project is inspired by Bugatti’s “Golden Era” celebration at Monterey Car Week 2023. While that event focused on new Bugatti creations, I believe the Veyron is one of the strongest symbols of Bugatti’s modern golden era. It was the car that changed what a hypercar could be, and this AUTOart model deserves to be restored, not forgotten.

My goal is to restore and customize this model into a clean cinematic showcase build, using a junkyard-style diorama to tell the story of where it started.

Building the Display Base

Finishing up the paintwork on the small details. Individually they may not seem like much, but together they will shape the final look of the whole build.

I’ve also been working on the 3D modeling and printing of a custom display base for the Veyron.
