Finally coaxed old Lynx out of its resting place for the last 30 years, (yes 30 years )
Its now a case of bolting all the wings, lights and body, to the semi bare chassis, had to do it this way because we had a 90
degree turn inside the shed, and decided on damage limitation, Everything else is finished, the bonnet sides are of to check the engine and reach the stop incase the clutch is stuck
