I purchased a (1979?) Lynx-B last month for a winter project. I don't know much about older F/V's. I paid $3,500 for it, delivered to my front door, Reno Nevada to Bakersfield, Cal. My initial thought was to make it a an open track car. Typical stuff, replace the 1200 with a stronger 1600, re-engineer the rather bizarre steering mechanism, nut and bolt etc. The only thing thing I have done to this car so far is purchase a used set of Hoosier slicks.
It has VARA and ICSCC log books, spotty history. The roll bar stamp is 33199. The car number seems to have been #379 at one point, now it is #79. I called a former owner in the Seattle area. He rembered the car and explained some signficant hill climbing championships.
Compared to my Crossle F/F, this car is a real tight fit even with out a racing suit on. I would have to recongigure the cockpit area and perform other structual modifications to fit me.
So there it it is in a nut shell.
