I think that's it! That or the 115 Boxcar which your link led me to.

Childhood memory playing tricks and remembering the full hull depth running further back (and so back wheels even further back), and seeing the pod on its wheels whilst ignoring the main gear.

I think my quest is over - nobody made a non-canard with the main gear split substantially fore and aft - except the B-52, which needs the high angle of incidence to get off the ground (and nose-down in flight attitude).

Thanks all.
