@stewil   The Corsica was the first one that caught my eye.  Tomorrow, I will have a look around to see what I can find.  It is a truly magnificent automobile and it is remarkable how these bundles of steel and parts can take hold of our emotions.

I don't know how you can ever leave your car showrooms Steve! Stunning collection, beautifully presented. I reckon there's an outside chance I might find this Minichamps here in the local ebay. 

@stewil I like how my page lives a life of its own, even when I'm not posting;)

And Steve, you have a gorgeous collection of Bugattis and we all would be happy to see more of your 1/43 models. That definitely deserves its own page, hope you will start it

Anyway, this is my last Bug. After that I will continue with Alfa Romeo

1/43 EMC PIVTORAK 1954 (?) BUGATTI T252 GRAN SPORT COUPE PROJECT BY MICHELOTTI⁠

Looking forward to the Alfa's, the favorite marque of my teenage youth.  

Will briefly show Abarths (cause I don't have many of them) and will start with Alfa

ABARTH

1/43 Lux-B 1959 Abarth 850 Spyder Riviera By Allemano

@hobbydragon interesting model. I only have 1 Arbarth, a 1/24.

@geoff-jowett Thank you. I'm collecting only 1 to 43, you know ... Anyway I have only 3 Abarths at the moment

1/43 LUX-B 1959 ABARTH 859 SPIDER RIVIERA BY ALLEMANO

1962-65 ABARTH SIMCA 1300 BY MARIO COLUCCI

1/43 Spark 1965 Fiat Abarth "Omologato Turismo" 1300 By Mario Colucci

It's a good day to start with Alfa)))

Anyway, some of the models that will be shown here, probably were published already, but now i will post them in chronological order.

ALFA ROMEO

EMC Pivtorak - 1933 Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 GS by Figoni (Best in Show at the 2012 Villa d’Este Concorso d’Eleganza)⁠

@hobbydragon EMC also made the version in its original color separations.

@mg-harv Yes, you're right. There is also a two-tone blue paint scheme from Pivtorak too, that I also don't have(( But mine is with champion's cup

Just borrowed the pictures from fellow collector

And here is my cheapo Matrix version.  I love the French curve look on an Alfa!

@karl You've anticipated my next post 😉

Here's the Matrix' model and comparison between both. Matrix is much wider (that is not good, due to Pivtorak's model is a correct 1/43 reproduction of an original car)

Anyway, despite the fact, that I'm a purist, just keeping both models in the collection
