Re: Morris Quad references
Graham -
There’s already a thread about this on the Forum, with the same title ! There’s relatively little about the Quad, but more (including the inevitable Osprey) about the 25-pounder which also has information about the Quad. A search of the usual suspects (Google, Amazon, eBay) should throw up everything you need.
You may also glean more information from Regimental Histories, if you’re intending to model an actual vehicle.
One thing you shouldn’t stint on, though, is the Armorpax (Dave Dibb’s) excellent add-on pack for the Quad, which turns a great model into an exceptional one.
Hope this helps,
Chris

Re: Morris Quad references
Thank you Chris for your helpful advice. I am already a fan of Dave Dibb and I have used his products for my Universal carrier, and 25pdr.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.

Re: Morris Quad references
Some ISBN search numbers.
There's a walk around entitled "FAT Detail" WWP publications R079 ISBN 978-80-87509-43-2.
And an Army Wheels in detail, Morris Quad Commercial C8 Quad ISBN 978-80-87578-11-7
Both paper back, covering different versions with some good detail and history.
Great model, read though the topics for some helpful hints on the basics.
There are some instructions that are not quite right.

Re: Morris Quad references
It would seem that the books mentioned by the kind folk above are out of print and/or unavailable. Does anyone have a copy of these books they would like to sell to me, please?
