Lynx B pictures needed

[socaljeff3798]

I need help. As some of you know I am in the process of restoring a 71 Lynx B.
I am looking for pictures of an original frame so I can see what has been changed and what is original.
A lot of it I can tell from the cutting or welding. But much of it is a bit of a mystery.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
Jeff

2) Front roll hoop was added
3) 1 Inch drop in floo pan
4) front master cylender brackets added


Rear of frame is unchanged from originally built.

there is no lateral structure between the upper rails behind the driver....what is that all about........just wondering

Lynx B is a ladder frame design like most modern FV. As there is no roll resistance at the rear of a FV there is very little torsion carried through the frame.

Consequently upper frame members in the engine area are not needed.

Thanks Mark
Very helpful. Do you have any pictures since you have completed the car.

The cross member is removable in every Lynx B and the fuel tank also has to be removed to remove the engine.
