Unless there's some really odd explanation it's almost certain your Lynx had the W/T. It was factory applied and visible on every wartime 'repaint' I've ever seen.

However, I would like to confirm that my vehicle should have them as the restorer, Mike Ebeling, was most meticulous in all other respects.
Secondly, I have seen in one photograph, a sign "SLING HERE" alongside a lifting eye on the vehicle. This was a picture of a prototype Lynx in the factory. Did this continue into production and would it have been stencilled alongside each of the four eyes?
