Here’s a vehicle based on the everlasting Ford T, the mmgs (motorized machine gun Service). I searched the history of this version of the Model T but I admit that the sources are scarce, some confuse it with the Ford T of light car patrol (ancestor of the LRDG) used by the British and Australians in Egypt and Palestine , others report a single copy made. So I have no reliable source on the history of this version of the Ford T.

The kit is manufactured by RESICAST , a well-known Belgian company whose productions are of high quality. Assembly went without problems, the instruction notice is clear and very detailed, the resin is of perfect quality and great finesse, without bubbles. Resicast provides many accessories I won’t use here.

To go with the ford, résicast offers an English figurine in winter coat that will bring an original touch to our vehicle.

To add again originality to this scene, I built a cart that I had long been in stock from fanatic dioramas, a French firm today disappeared. The assembly only last 10 min because of the well conceived model.

The paint is done classically with use of hairspray for the wooden cargo of the Ford and
for the cart.
