Harry,
Great looking machine, sounds like it is a very early Lynx. Do you have the hull number ? Peter |

Well done George, I am looking forward to the day I drive mine out of my shed for the first time. Nearly there, just a bit of ill health holding things up. I wonder how many will that make on the road world wide now?
This is hull no. 1726 which I have restored from a complete wreck. I lent it to a museum for a few months, so it also sat on 80km/h with out any problems.. Walhalla 099a.jpg Follow my restoration here. http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=23906 I'll get back into it soon I hope. Regards Rick.

went back and read every Lynx posting on MLU over the last month. I'm catching up fast. Been working on bits and pieces all week, its around 5 to 10 degrees Celsius, freezing my but off, wearing latex gloves for warmth not just to keep my hands clean.Found the serial number and yes it is #23.
hydraulic clutch but missing the original hydraulic throttle so its cable. I see the lynx2 had a mechanical throttle and a cable clutch, that would be an improvement but I've serviced it all and may rebuild the slave cylinder on the clutch, the leak is pretty bad. Going through it, making lists of the to do's. I'll get it all shaken down mechanically before repainting it. |

Hope you are not trying to get the sympathy vote. It was -42°C when I went to the truck this morning, but it has warmed up to a balmy -33°C now. |

And 5 to 10 C is prime working weather. Any warmer and it gets uncomfortably hot, at least here on Ontario. |
