Again a great show for real cars and scale models.
Nice to meet LaSource and JAPA at the minidelta booth.

Kind regards

Thank you Wolfgang, wish I was there! Nice to see the Miura by Fred, I have some of those coming and had not seen the built model yet. Pierre Laugier always has amazing new ideas, by the way Marshall Buck of CMA carries his work if anyone is searching for LP Creation pieces. Patrice de Conto always has something stunnnig on display, his work looks so real. I wonder what the Le Phoenix models were selling for, maybe collectors can still find some great deals at this show.

Look for "Gallery (388 images)" or "slide show"

I was there, too. Amongst my purchases there was the light blue Jaguar XK120 AMR built by Le Phoenix shown in the photos. For more photos and comments about Retromobile you can have a look at my blog http://grandiepiccoleauto.blogspot.com/?spref=fb
