Talbot Lago Record Presidential

Heco Miniatures

Model cars from the 1930s in Limited Edition

"Heco Modeles" was created in 1979 by Herve Colombet. The company was first hosted in a room in the centre town of Saint Etienne. 21 years old, Herve was impassionned by miniature car models and he had only one dream, to manufacture his own models.

The success of his first creation, the "Bugatti 73A", sold at 300 numbered copies, encouraged him to continue in this direction.

During the first years when he manufactured mainly of the "Bugatti" and "Rolls Royce", he learned how to control all the various techniques necessary to the realization of automotive scale models ( prototype, modelling, moulding resin and white metal, painting with the aerographer, turning, photopartage, decals etc...)

In 1985, his efforts were rewarded as he received the prize for the "Miniature of the Year" for the realization of "Bugatti 57C Rodney Clark".

"Vincent Auriol", French Republic President since 1947 to 1954 liked very much the "Talbot". When he decided to change its presidential car the "Renault Suprastella", he ordered "Saoutchik" for a new model on a lengthened chassis of Talbot Lago Record. In its workshops of Neuilly, "Saoutchik" will built this majestic convertible of traditional color with a blue leather interior in a very fast time.

All models produced by HecoMiniatures are made by hand. Since its foundation, HecoMiniatures has been on the forefront of creating the finest 1/43rd scale model cars.
Each HecoMiniature model starts off with a prototype, made entirely by hand, by artisan Bruno. Oliver has joined his team in 2005. Bodies and chassis are hand cast in resins, with accessories cast in white metal. Every part is hand finished and expertly painted by skilled craftsmen. The metal components are polished and then nickel plated.
Assembly requires the greatest skills, with attention to all details by the team at HecoMiniatures.

All models are produced in strictly limited editions of 25 to 300 pieces, depending on the individual model. Since 2006, each model is mounted on a plinth of "Troncet" oak, along with a surface representing a stone road, expertly finished and painted by one of our craftsman. Each model is presented in a custom acrylic display case and delivered in a wooden box.
The traditions at HecoMiniatures have been, and always will be, to produce models of the highest creativity and quality!
