Pete, that looks real nice and it's great you have someone who can do that quality fabrication.

Barry,

I don't have the skills for fabrication, but I do seem to have a talent for finding proud, talented and enthusiastic people such as Andy Pomorski. The front storage bin looks great, now to remove it and have it blasted and primed.

Guys,

The nose armour is back on, for what I hope is the last time. One needs to be a contortionist to deal with the nuts inside the frame rails,
The paint certainly changes the Lynx's appearance. Now to remount all the bits and pieces.
Then to finalize the unit and formation markings along with the other odd markings.

Looking really good, Peter.

I have been enjoying watching progress with your build.

No more winter white just in time for spring..... What paint are you using? The colour looks really nice.

Looks great Peter. Can't wait to see it in the flesh.

Guys,

I am trying to make this restoration as accurate as possible, and it has only been possible thanks to MLU members such as yourselves who have provided information and access to parts.
I was very fortunate to have significant hidden portions of the Lynx that retained original paint samples. I used an enamel Olive Drab Flat that only needed a minor amount of ‘tweaking’.

Guys,

The small pieces can and are just as rewarding as the larger components. A nice example are the two Ford emblems, one on the front storage bin and the second on the radiator armour.
