1/76 Albion A-10 British lorry by CONVOY - WIP part 1

Very old and rare resin model. The quality same to all models of this company. Not very good. I assembled the basic kit details first. To compare with the photos and understand the scale of the "tragedy". I found the frame shorter than necessary. All small parts are greatly simplified. All of it needed to change to new ones. I disassembled the model and decided to improve it as much as possible. There are casting defects. For example the side grilles on the hood are spoiled. I made new foil: I lengthened the frame.   and made new plastic front bumper mounts. I think the most interesting parts on this truck is the chain wheel drive. The resin detail of this mechanism is very simplified. So I made a new one. From 11 parts  Compare what I did with photo of real one. Of course my work is not perfect , but better than it was.
