Chris,
Is this the emblem you mean? http://www.macsautoparts.com/ford_me...-standard.html If it is, it's interesting to note that it seems to be reproduced by Bob Drake and sold by Mac's. Another example of the repro sellers all selling a common part.

More small steps
Guys,
Life has kept me out of the garage for quite a while. When I do get my garage time, it feels like a sanctuary from this mad world. Finished off the brakes, with the exception of the master cylinder, which mounts to the hull floor. Went on an expedition to Dan McCaw's place in Coe Hill. Came home with a few bits and pieces and now have a pattern for my seat covers. Stopped at a Military surplus place on the way and got a couple of old kit bags for the material. Managed to paint and finish off some parts, the rebuilt/NOS/repaired shelves are starting to fill up and look respectable.

Pleasant detour
Guys,
While waiting the outcome of the engine, radiator and junction boxes, I acquired the remnants of both the back and seat for the drivers position, enough for good patterns. A local upholsterer/awning fabricator by the name of Jeff Church was able to fabricate some great seats and covers, material came from some old kit bags. Not on my current critical path, but a rewarding detour. Peter 2015-06-19 16.08.34.jpg

Hi Peter, Nice seat covering. Is that the actual Lynx seat? My seat does not have those rails under it as in your photo as it has the seat raising mechanism. I will put up a photo for comparison tonight when I get home.
Keep up the good work. Regards Rick.

Peter, here are a couple of photos of a Lynx I Mk.III* drivers seat I borrowed for a copy. Mine was a bit worse for wear as you will see on my restoration thread.
