My model Morgan cars
The oldest one more than 45 years old. But still no oil leakage!

@Bert: The small green one. The plastic roof is already beginning to disintegrate. Held together by cyanoacrylate. But they don't differ much in age. Maybe about 10 years. But my favourite one is the big one. Best matching proportions. And my favourite colours. Almost matching the 1:1 scale four-seater colours. Which, by the way, I never found as a model car. If anyone knows a source, please let me know. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/07/19/IMG_9411.jpg) This is the only one I ever have seen, 1/43, I think made for MOG 1994, never seen another! Hi Ruut, Looks like me previous 4str, except for colour and the very slanted windscreen :-)

Nice collections, I really must try harder to find the Series 1 Aero 8 model in Blue that I wanted!

That looks good .... there's a guy (in America I think) who does amazingly realistic model dioramas .... he sets them up on a board and then takes them out and, using clever camera angles and placing, shoots them with real buildings and landscape as the background .... excellent results.

Google ... "model cars photographed against real backgrounds" and select image search ....
Michael Paul Smith .... he has a big flikr album

Thanks gents. I’ve seen the real background stuff before but I’m not that committed to take all the gear out and stage the shot
I do have some quite good gear and some small ideas about how to use it.
I made the airfix models specifically to stage this photo, models took about 15 hours to compete. I said I was bored! The Morgan model was bought on a factory visit.

And my favourite colours. Thoughtful birthday gift, the 1956 4/4 by Vitesse is as near to my Roadster as the giver could find. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2022/02/11/Three-Ivory-Morgans.jpg)

![[Linked Image]](https://tm-img.com/images/2024/12/07/IMG_8051.jpeg) Car models are the only thing I currently polish weekly….soon the Morgan will be uncovered or at least in 2025.. There are no maker names on the models shown. the watch/clock Morgan I think came from a company we bought bulk clock movements from years ago. I did find a large glass model at Lawrences Auction House in Crewkerne last year but it was a mix of Morgan (most of it): and Bugatti back plus it had a crack in it. Do those carved coal models still exist ? Any other arty models about but not kits - I have a couple of those including a plus 8. Best MM. Saw this in another thread, and because I'm also interested in Model (Morgan) cars... like many here I want to show mine too. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2024/12/22/DSCN5269.jpg) I have the same Watch/clock Morgan but in silver gray. Found it in a souvenir shop in Antwerp, for no money. And she even installed a new battery. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2024/12/22/DSCN5261.md.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2024/12/22/DSCN5267.md.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2024/12/22/DSCN5282.md.jpg) This one I found at a flea market. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2024/12/22/DSCN5270.jpg) They had several for sale. I still regret not buying them all. Because this is more than a Morgan model car. If you press the rear bumper you can light your cigarette. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2024/12/22/DSCN5276.md.jpg) And the dashboard and headlights light up and flicker. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2024/12/22/DSCN5275.md.jpg) This one also has no markings. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2024/12/22/DSCN5283.md.jpg) If you show yours, I'll show you the rest of mine.
