The Morris Light Reconnaissance Car history is here

This model is an old reference from accurate armour. The molding is of quality except the rear part which presents some bubbles difficult to mask. Like all models in resin, the number of parts is limited which allows a quick assembly (I really can not do with these Asian models up to 500 pieces). Having bought the used Morris on ebay, I realized that I missed a rear light and the opening arms for the rifle boys’ hatches, I asked at accurate armor if they were possible to send them to me but since the model had been bought on ebay they do not do it, too bad …, it was necessary to cast a new rear light and reproduce the opening arms. The suspension and tools are designed as often in English kits in white metal which requires more thorough cleaning than the resin.

The only negative point of this model is the rear grille which is impossible to install as it, indeed, it is in flat photoetched and must be installed on a conical part, it can not be folded on all four sides, I had to cut the grid and redo the central part.
