64EK26 Posted May 11, 2017 Posted May 11, 2017 Front vision block in good condition wanted and I'm also after a starting handle Are the vision blocks the same as a Ferret ?, as I might have a spare one of those Cheers Richard
Starfire Posted May 12, 2017 Posted May 12, 2017 Are the vision blocks the same as a Ferret ?, as I might have a spare one of those Cheers Richard I believe that trophy160 has a Mk 6 Saracen. The early Saracens (Mk 1-3) used the same driver's periscopes as the Ferret: Periscope, No.17, Mk 1 FV29638 The later Saracens (Mk 5 and 6) used fixed vision blocks which, to the best of my knowledge, weren't used in anything else: The Saracen actually carried 5 of these, 3 smaller ones for the driver's side windows and one for the rear door, and 2 of the larger ones; one for the driver's front window and one spare. Ferrets, of course, also had a set of vision blocks/splinter screens for the side vision slits: Screen, thin, c/w glass block TL2776 LV2 FV55121 Block, triplex, 7 in. x 3 1/4 in. x 3/4 in. laminated LV2 TL2776 These weren't used by the Saracen, but if you have a spare one of those, I'd be keen to get it off of you. Cheers, Terry
