Hello All,
After patiently waiting for about 2 1/2 months, I received word several days ago that my latest model has been completed and now on it's way to a loving home! :) Based on the ABC Brianza kit, it was built by the incredibly talented Laurent Tay of Garage43. As strange as it may sound, I decided to go with the pearlescent purple because I had envisioned how the model would look as if it were "floating" when presented on the carbon fiber base. On to the pictures...

Absolutely stunning color choice...and 2.5 months is a pretty normal waiting time for any "busy" builder. |

Wow - I love it!!!
Although I still love my one slightly more...
Sorry, not meaning to steal your thunder, here, but this is a subject that gets me jumping :o) I have another kit here waiting to be built by Laurent in a different colour scheme, too...

If ever you want to move yours on, just say the word and I'll take it off your hands in a heartbeat!
I was blown away by mine when I first saw it, the colour combination (I'm a sucker for dark metallic red), mounted on a wooden base - I thought it was as good as it gets. But yours, mounted on carbon fibre like that that, well... now I have to completely rethink my plans for my second kit :o)
A terrible shame the real car was never built. That, and their 100P are two out of three or four of my most favorite French art deco vehicles from that era.
