Exceptional Toys ...
Bringing up to date a 1930's fashion to satisfy
the tastes of today, Xavier De La Chapelle has, since 1979, been creating
a rather different toy. These superb reproductions are entirely hand built
and crafted to the standards of quality on which the reputation of the
marque has been founded. |
 |
There still
exists in France small, traditional workshops which take pleasure in dedicated
craftmanship, as was the case at the turn of the century, to provide our
young apprentice drivers with the maximum of pleasure. Driving at low and safe speed, their sensations are as intense as those felt by their
elders at the wheel of the original model. |
 |
New version (2008 release). |
 |
Should
we speak of toys or of real automobiles ?. Four-stroke engines with accelerator,
brakes, headlights, indicators - everything works perfectly. If you wish
for full carpeting, tradition Gal leather upholstery, two-tone lacquered
paint, hand-polished wheels, woodrim steering wheel - no detail
has been overlooked. |

Precious
articles, the De La Chapelle Juniors are built with devotion and each example
is numbered. They are beautifully decorative and real collectors' items.
Knowledgable collectors, Emirs or enthusiasts, many have quickly understood
and a certain number of them have built up veritable stables of these little
bolides. |

 |
These models are also the answer to many a marketing
manager's dreams. To create customer interest, placing a De La Chapelle
Junior in your showroom has become an essential attraction. Even main
dealers have not been slow in using these marvellous replicas to put
a sparkle into their showrooms.
So many adult enthusiasts dreamed of such things
during their childhood ! |
