Michel Stassart is living in Belgium and working as professional model builder since 1990.

He originally started to build customized model cars for different customers, one of whom was Jacques Swaters, Ferrari importer in Belgium and owner of the famous “Ecurie Francorchamps”. Through this relation he became known by a number of collectors. The requests for building scale models became not only more frequent, but also more complex, ending in creating models, at different scales, starting from various very transformed basis.

From then on his hobby and passion became a professional engagement.
At the request of an owner of the real car, he undertook the creation of the Ferrari 333SP at 1/8 scale, starting from scratch. All the parts of this model car were developed and constructed at home. As this famous racing car has had a wide variety of liveries, he has been able to satisfy many owners to get the model to their specifications.

As a certain number of his clients are collectors of mythical Le Mans racing cars, Michel engaged to create and build the famous Cobra Daytona Coupe that made history in Le Mans, at 1/8 scale, once more starting from a white sheet of paper.
It is only by rigorously respecting the dimensions of each single piece that such a complex model car can be assembled.

Michel’s work is all encompassing in its detail, with every section of the model being treated as individual components and then built to that high standard. On top of that the finish of the model is beautiful with various liveries to suit the wishes of the buyer.
