A high mileage front-wheel drive Scout Car. Would they have ever imagined in 1942?

Hope that someone here on the forum can help.

I found this previous post/thread (http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/showthread.php?t=6402) where Jordan Baker was looking for info/details for M3A1 Scout Cars used by Canadians during WW2. Forum member oztankboy (Phil) had replied to Jordan's request by posting a diagram that showed an internal layout but also commented that it came from a Canadian wartime pam (pamphlet?). Jordan asked if a higher resolution version of the diagram was available and recently told me that he never received a follow-up response. I've private messaged oztankboy (Phil) but also no response.

I've googled this diagram and the only result I seem to get is one on a model building forum but again with a low resolution image.

If anyone here on MLU can help with finding a higher resolution version of this diagram, I would be very appreciative.

Cheers, Terry.

That pamphlet often appears on ebay as a reprint for low money.

Failing that I do have it somewhere... I will look for it at the weekend.

Found it faster than I expected.

This is the manual the page is from...

There are approx. 40 pages and several WS installation variation diagrams.

Hope this is a better version of the one you asked about.

Though, recommend you get the manual.
