David, te bin looks like it has taken a hit with the front squashed and the back of the bin has ridden up the front of the lynx as it was pushed back....or that's how it seems to me

Hi Peter,
Here are some pictures of the seat. I am in the process of replacing the height cable as it snapped recently!

James,
Thanks very much. Firms up nicely what I need to achieve. Attached are a few pictures of what I have to start with. Should anyone out there stumble across some of the components of the Observers/Gunners seat for the Lynx 11, I would appreciate a "head up". Thanks again, Peter 2017-04-09 14.36.10.jpg 2017-04-09 14.36.49.jpg |

Guys,
When I first saw my Lynx and noted that both fuel tanks and associated hardware were missing I've searched in vain for the cast filler covers C19SR 9112. To compound the issue the covers are different between Marks of the Lynx even though they share the same part number. Now due to the "can do" attitude of Rob Love and a very progressive understanding by the curator of the RCA museum in Shilo, I was able to have an original cover removed from their Lynx and shipped to a metal casting company in Winnipeg. I am now the proud owner of three new cast covers (the price was just too good to stop at two). My debt to Rob now rivals our Federal deficit.

Guys,
My original electric fuel pump was well weathered and not suitable to be rebuilt. I then got an NOS pump from LWD parts, which despite the great 70 year old packaging, needed a rebuild. After a fair bit of searching I found a firm in Michigan that rebuilds Autopulse electric fuel pumps for Duesenbergs. I understand that a Duessie uses three pumps !! Bottom line is that "Classic & Exotic Service, Inc" will either rebuild your pump or sell you a rebuild kit. Peter 2017-04-21 11.33.26.jpg 2017-04-20 01.57.12.jpg |

Guys,
Andy Pomorski, a talented fabricator/welder, fabricated new front fenders for the Lynx, using the old ones as templates. They look great and bolted up without a whimper. The Lynx is now regaining it's pugnacious, bulldog look. The next step will be the front storage bin. Should anyone have any pictures, sketches or dimensions of the supporting brackets for this bin, they would be quite helpful. Thanks, Peter 2017-04-23 09.19.15.jpg 2017-04-24 14.59.40 HDR.jpg 2017-04-23 13.37.08.jpg |
