I was sure I had a paper one somewhere in my 'To do' archive, but I can't find it. I guess it musta just been memories of the Airfix kits I had as a youth. I had all of those you show in the last post. (Airfix not WAK) I'm sure there was a Moggie Quad available too though. My rather dodgy memory says it came with a field gun and limber.



Yep! (Google to the rescue) There it is, but the earlier ones were even uglier.

Sorry for raking up old coals, but I found a paper Quad ... Knew I'd seen one somewhere.
