In the back of my mind, I think Dirk purchased it from a Jim Rice.
Regards Rick.

Hanno, Bruce and Rick,
Thanks for your comments and pictures. I've been accused of being overly optimistic by more than one person, but to my uneducated eyes the pictures suggest two different Lynxes. The search goes on. We know that Dirk's Lynx found a great home, but who knows where the second lurks ?? Peter |

I knew I had some photos of the ex. Jim Rice Lynx so here they are before it was sold to Dirk.

I think we all agree on this example, ex-Jim Rice, is the one that went to Dirk Leegwater in The Netherlands: Leegwater Lynx1.jpg I am with you on the one featured in Convoy magazine as a "wildflower" being a different example: Convoy Lynx 2015-12-28 12.02.12.jpg Apart from the fork lift(?) attachments, note how the sides below the "belt line" have been cut away, which was not done on Dirk's example. So the question remains indeed: where did the "Convoy wildflower" Lynx go? H.

Guys,
Made a visit last week to the CWM to firm up my dimensions for the battery boxes and the armour for the fuel tanks. Michael Miller has been extremely accommodating for these visits and always has something worthwhile on the go. While these items are being fabricated I decided to turn my hand to the electrical systems. While I am a novice at the mechanical components, electrical work is going to be a real stretch. I built a temporary table to lay out the old wiring to better understand it. Now to order the correct period wiring. Does anyone know of a supplier they would recommend? Was able to clean up and salvage the original battery cut off switch and had a new box fabricated. Slow progress, but it is progress.

Peter is your old harness complete?
If it is, it will be expensive but Vintage Wiring of Maine can likely build a repro for you. I think all they need is your old harness, a schematic and any details for added or deleted components.
