The chassis was not that much different from the car it had to replace but the engine was fitted with chain driven camshafts to reduce the noise. Four frames were built but only two cars were completed. Jean Bugatti designed a body for the Type 64 with gullwing doors, and that was 15 years before the legendary Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing.
