[Boatanchors] Need Viking Valiant Wiring Harness Breakout Diagram

I'm rebuilding an old Valiant, using the BAMA copy of the construction 
manual.  It's not the greatest copy, but it's readable.  I also have the 
BAMA copy of the operating manual.  The scan/copy of the wiring harness 
breakout diagram in the back of the operating manual (Figure 10), is 
almost illegible.  I need a clear copy if I ever hope to get the old 
girl rebuilt.

Could any of you fine folks scan the wiring harness breakout diagram 
(Figure 10) in your original Valiant manual and email it to me?  Use the 
highest resolution you have, because I will need to print the diagram at 
17" X 22" (poster printed) so I can read the fine print! Is it possible 
that one of you have an original Valiant operating manual you'd be 
willing to sell me?  How about a Valiant construction manual?  Or is 
that just wishful thinking?  I sure could use both if I could find them!

I know this is an ambitious project, but I used a Valiant at my college 
club station back in the Sixties and sort of fell in love with it.  I 
always wanted one of my own, and a few years ago I bought one from a 
CB-er on Craigslist.  It had been severely hacked, but rebuilding it is 
a labor of love.  I'm replacing everything that could be bad, and one of 
these months, I'll have an (almost) new Valiant on the air.  I'm even 
putting all the mods into it to make it a virtual Valiant II so I can 
use it with my Johnson SSB adapter.

Thanks for any help you can give me.
