Artillery Towing

I made four of these vehicles.
The first cars were often boxy and looked much like horse drawn wagons.
Sometimes they would only seat a few people.
This one has spoked wheels and they are in motion so they look clear.
I added a trailer hitch to the back, one of the early ideas was to use them to tow artillery on roads anyway.
I used and Airfix pilot figure as the driver.
Here it is towing a 3 inch gun.
Probably no faster than about 5 or 6 mile per hour, as wooden wheels on artillery don't travel well on speeds faster than that.
