Wanted : Airfix Vanguard

[zenrat]

I've recently discovered the "Vickers Vanjet",  a paper project that seems to fall between the Vanguard and the VC 10.. Further data here:-  https://www.key.aero/article/why-baby-vc10-never-flew

As opposed to the Vickers JetVan of which a single prototype was built clocking 160 up the M1 with a full load of 2 plumbers, an apprentice, their tools and lunch, half a cwt of copper, three decommissioned hot water cylinders, a copy of the sun and half a pack of woodbines.

I did thanks Dave, can't remember where I got it from though. If it was from someone on here, thanks VERY much, and I apologise for forgetting you.

Its Tyne engines are now grafted onto the wings of my Roden C-133, and the C-133's T-40s are now on the Vanguard's wings, or will be eventually. 

So, what happens to the Vanguard? 4 RR Griffons?
