Smile Operaters Manual wanted Universal Carrier MK 1

Hello Carrier Forum, I am in need of an operators manual for the Universal Carrier, MK 1. Anyone have a copy in digital format or an original one. I am in Texas, Houston. Would like to get my carrier project started this year. Also looking for part, complete engine, transmission, track sections, interior parts, etc. What do you have available. Many thanks and happy new year!

I am sorry Don but a T16 is a very different vehicle in detail to a UC Mk1. It looks superficially similar but almost all the parts are different, particularly the engine, fuel system, steering and electrics. To my mind the T16 is a much better vehicle and nicer to drive but it suffered from some problems when it was first released which were sorted out but by then the war was over. Original T16 TM9s are not that common so look after it but then T16s are not that common either!

Looks like IWM will do a copy for a fee. The second listed is a parts list with illustrations, and the last is an original manual.
