I know nothing about this vehicle, I just thought it was worth sharing a few pictures

The Four Wheel Drive Auto Company was an American maker based in Clintonville, Wisconsin. Their primary product became the Model B truck(lorry) in 1913.  Britain purchased some 500 examples for service during the Great War.

With these photos and the scaled plan on Landships, maybe someone (Roden?) will make a 1/72 model kit for us.

Thanks, Massimo Foti.

I took a few additional shots along the way. In case someone would be interested for modelling purposes I would be more than glad to share

An FWD Model B would be an excellent subject giving its wide usage

This one is displayed with the use of mirrors to show the underside, and that is certainly a challenge for any modeller...hmm

And then there is the radiator shell...no
