Lynx II, hull # 4225

[rob love]

Ours has the splash plate, but there is no way of getting a decent photo without tearing off all the rear armour housing. Afraid I just doesn't have the spare hours right now for it...still playing catch up with a half dozen projects neglected during the spring.

Afraid ours does not have the data plate in the location given in the manual.

Rob,

Please do not tear things apart on my behalf. You have more than enough on your plate. Thanks for checking out the data plate. Sadly these plates seem to attract sticky fingers.

Guys,

Trailered the Lynx to the FMVA Bivouac, in Odessa, on Saturday. It was great to see all the green iron and reconnect with folks from the military vehicle community.

Th Hammond barn was well represented by Bob Carriere and Grant Bowker. Bob and his C15 competed with public transit to see who could haul the most passengers. It certainly sounded sweet tearing around the circuit.

Nice to dream that some day the Lynx will make it to one of these events without the trailer.

Guys,

Thanks to some great MLU networking, I was introduced to Markus Muellner. This talented individual used a computer, scanner and 3D printer to cut me reproductions of my data and publication plates. Once riveted into place they are indistinguishable from the real thing. Also had the last of the radiator shrouding fabricated and now the oil cooler is properly secured. Small steps but quite rewarding.

3D printer ? So are your plates made of 3D printed plastic painted silver or what? Very ingenious solution.

Actually they are milled aluminum using a CNC router.

Beautiful work, Markus!

Markus,

Thanks for clarifying the process.

David,

I can attest to the quality of the plates. While the back side is flat and unfinished the front is exceptional and personalized with all the correct information.
