Morris C8 Artillery Tractor
Using the much loved Quad FAT as a basis, this model adds another tow vehicle for the 25lb field gun and limber to our Dinky army. The Quad style cranked tow hook has been added hitch up to the limber and gun. This model has been the most challenging so far. Hand casting a complete body in one go has been difficult. And despite my feelings that the model could be improved, I still think it has a place in my collection alongside the Quad. Maybe one day I will have another attempt to improve the quality of casting and detail.

I have replaced the tin baseplate with a cast item with a pillar for the driver, although I retained the original "Field Artillery Tractor" embossing to keep the Dinky heritage.
