just thought I would give you all a friendly warning that this is NOT a Morris Quad.

It is a #12 cab CMP Ford Quad the same as the 1/35 Tamiya Quad kit.

another case of wrong ID on a model by the manufacterers.

cheers

Cliff, thanks for the warning! ThoughI've bought the kit on saturday. I don't think the wrong ID spoiled something, but It's good to know, and still I think the kit is very nice and detailed

Cheers,
Pedro

ps. Why do you think companies do such things with ID? Is it not enough research or on some 'purpose '?

It's another reissue of the old Esci kit. Not a bad set overall though.

As far as the ID problem, I think the company tries to give the model a more well known name than the proper name to spur sales.
