Guys,
Trying a new technique for loading pictures. These are of the new rear fenders. Also having the outside storage bins being fabricated. Chomping at the bit to get back into the garage. Peter IMG_0426.jpg IMG_0423.jpg |

Guys,
I'm now able to put time in the garage. Great to be back working on the Lynx. Now working on the soft skin components, some interesting angles on some of these parts, due to the configuration of the hull. Peter 2016-12-07 11.35.49.jpg 2016-12-07 14.33.12.jpg 2016-12-07 14.34.27.jpg |

Hi Peter, Back home from hospital yesterday (only 8 weeks this time) and still need another back operation in the new year.
It is interesting to see the differences between the Mk.III* of April 1943 and your rear bins. KVE Corowa2014 006.JPG KVE Corowa12014 006.JPG Here are two photos of my bins taken from above and you will see that the lid is bigger and hinged closer to the hull and are of a different opening shape. Regards Rick.

Rick,
Glad to hear that you're back home, just wish it wasn't a short term visit. The changes between marks is adding up. I noted the differences with the storage bins and rear fenders between Reg Hodgson's Lynx (Mk 111) and the Lynx 11 at the CWM. Fortunately enough of my originals survived to confirm that they were the same as the Lynx 11 at the museum. Not sure if this will help you, but I stumbled across the right map case with the back supports for my mark of Lynx. Great feeling when you come across NOS parts that just slip into place. Great to see more pictures of your Lynx, they are great motivators. Best of luck in the New Year with your surgery. Peter 2016-12-08 10.20.25.jpg 2016-12-08 10.21.45.jpg |

Reg's Lynx was in the same Australian 'batch' as Rick's.
Reg purchased it from South Australia. Mike |

Guys,
Christmas came in a plain crate. Thanks to the great workmanship of Dave Good aka Super Dave, I now have a reconditioned 239 for the Lynx. Dave even ran up the engine as part of the rebuild. Now to finish a few items in the engine compartment and the engine itself and I will move on to a major milestone. Peter 2017-01-03 14.31.51 (2).jpg 2017-01-03 14.59.30 (2).jpg |
