Morestone Rover 105

Post by Ecclesley »

Quite recently I got my first Morestone Esso series Rover 105, the green one in the back ground.
I found it a well produced model so I went to see if there was more to know and/or to find.
A second one, in a less presentable state, came my way for the mere sum of € 1,00.
I gave it a bare metal respray and this is how it looks now:

Thank you Johnboy and Motorman
The hand is steady at the ready, but my eyesight is not as it used to be, in spite of my Specsavers' specs.
I think I need to buy a pair of magnifier glasses like these:
