AutoHeritage is my personal YouTube channel and passion project—a celebration of classic cars and the incredible stories behind them. Growing up around pre-war cars, I’ve always been fascinated by their raw mechanical brilliance. These are cars with no electronics, just pure engineering and driving experience. They may be over 100 years old, but their speed and agility rival many modern vehicles today.
For me, these cars represent more than just machines; they’re pieces of history brought back to life. My family has always been involved in restoring and transforming these classics into specials—cars designed to take on iconic circuits like Silverstone, Donington, and Brands Hatch, as well as legendary hill climbs like Prescott.
The Bugatti Type 35B: The Car That Made Bugatti
One of my favorite projects on AutoHeritage was featuring the iconic Bugatti Type 35B. This car isn’t just a marvel of engineering; it’s a symbol of the brilliance of Ettore Bugatti, the founder of the brand.
The video, titled The Car That Made Bugatti, dives into the story of Ettore and the roots of the Bugatti brand, connecting its humble origins to the hypercars we know today. Filming this car was an absolute privilege. We captured stunning photography and created a 17-minute narrative that brings this piece of history to life.
Funneling Viewership Through Short-Form Content
To complement the main video, we also produced shorter, one-minute clips to highlight the car’s beauty and history. These acted as teasers, drawing viewers towards the full video and engaging a wider audience. This approach not only boosted viewership but also allowed us to tell the story in both concise and detailed formats.
Why AutoHeritage?
AutoHeritage is all about preserving and celebrating the legacy of classic & pre-war cars. It’s about sharing the stories, engineering, and passion that have defined these incredible vehicles for over a century. For anyone who loves history on wheels, AutoHeritage is a space to connect, learn, and be inspired.
Check out the Bugatti Type 35B video and other content on the channel—you’ll see why these cars continue to capture the imagination of car enthusiasts everywhere.
