I've been a many years reader, etc on Forum but never posted until now! Just got my 1st Garage43 project from Laurent after years of admiring his work & very pleased! 1/43 LePhoenix AC Cobra 427 - Approximately 1 month turn around, impressive!!!

The inspirations


+ this baby that Mike listed last year sometime and it went super fast! From then on I have wanted to do my own Cobra project(s)




The process









The final product









In the cabinet

Folks,
Sorry for deleting the pics earlier but they are back now; new to this and moved pics from one folder to another!
Anyways, thanks for all the welcome & complements! Yes, Laurent is extremely good and we all wish we could keep him just for our own personal builder! I have drooled for years at some of the projects that Laurent has done for you guys and yes, that Burgundy Cobra some lucky sole grabbed from Mike before I could decide if I should buy (hesitated & missed out also :-) ) I see everyone also appreciated that beauty!
Mike, my inspiration version is very close to the Rod Stewart car minus some of the chrome accents & accessories.

I do recall that Cobra taking under 2 hours to sell after it was listed for sale....simply beautiful...

That burgundy Cobra Laurent built certainly is a thing of beauty. I very nearly bought it myself when Mike listed it... and still kind of wish I had.

Hi Marvan, were you inspired by Rod Stewart's Cobra?

SUPERB!!!!!

Very nice indeed!

Laurent makes gorgeous models - I wish I could have him build for me exclusively, instead of having to share him with you guys...
