Lynx II, hull # 4225

[Peter Duggan]

Guys,

I'm trying to make my Lynx as original as possible, and I have had some very positive experiences with museums here in Canada.

I made a trip to the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa to firm up some details regarding the armoured cover over the fuel tank necks. Michael Miller was very supportive and allowed me to climb aboard their Lynx, take measurements, pictures and make a pattern for the splash shield.

I must note that these covers were cast from an original that came from the Royal Canadian Artillery Museum, in Shilo, Manitoba, and Rob Love was the individual that made this possible.

Without the support from these two individuals I doubt that it would be possible to faithfully replicate this set-up.

Now to challenge my young fabricator.


Peter
