Maurice, I don't know if you already have found some more pictures, but I could not resist copying this quote
It was posted by Steve Guthrie on the missing-lynx.com forum. It comes from George Blackburn's book 'Where the Hell are the Guns' about his time as an RCA Field Artillery Gunner in the UK:
Quote:
p.336: Vehicles do require some maintenance, of course, and drivers devote much time to keeping their trucks and quads, spotlessly clean inside and out. Clearly, however, they have to find ways of putting in time, and many of them go in for painting the insides of their quads and truck cabs in bright colours-Paris green, pale blue or light grey, with knobs and handles in bright red-in contrast to the drab exterior of camouflage splotches of dark green, olive-green, black and khaki
