In this blog I am depicting my collection of 1/43 Chaparrals, which probably is one of the most complete in the world and it is a small sample of the 1000+ of my 1/43 car models collection. Jim Hall's Chaparral distinctive race and innovative cars experienced strong success in both American and European racing circuits. Chaparral was the first to introduce purpose designed aerodynamic surfaces that later were adopted by others; such as F1 teams.
