Post #113 mentions the petrol tanks being in place. The Lynx has two tanks of 12.25 gallons each. These are protected in armoured boxes one on each side of the chassis.
The left hand tank was still in position but there was no sign if the other one. After I had purchased the speed boat at auction, I was allowed to completely go through the storage shed and look for what ever belonged to the Lynx. Almost straight away I found another fuel tank up in the rafters. It was not until some time later that I realized that I had two Left tanks and non for the right side. This tank from up in the rafters was in excellent condition not like the one which had spent the last 45 years+ out in the open.
