Early in the thread there was mention that this Saracen may have had radar equipment mounted on top of it. I recall, in the manual "New equipment for the Cdn Army", a small red booklet from the early 60s, that there was an entry for radar equipment mounted on a vehicle. The early version of the manual had the radar mounted on a Bobcat, and a later version (after the cancellation of the Bobcat project) of the pamphlet showed a British vehicle (if I recall correctly) with the radar mounted on it. Does any body have this manual, and was it possibly one of these two saracens we are talking about?

It has been a few years since I saw a copy of the manual, so I may be way off to left base here.
