Good day today, removed the engine. Found a tag wired to the rear axle and I've attached a picture. Does this mean the rear assembly was replaced some time during it's career? The speedometer is past resurrection (thanks to Dirk L., I've got a NOS one on the way). But it appears to show over 24,000 miles on the odometer, which for this type of vehicle seems quite high. The oral history I got with the vehicle is that after the Canadian troops left Italy, it was in turn given to the Italian army and ultimately the Italian police, before it was scrapped in the mid seventies. Is there any practical manner of researching the history of a Lynx based solely on the hull number?
Thanks, Peter
