I also had a Composite Craft LynxII back in the days but this one at the picture uses a different frontend. At the original car there was fixed camber at the frontend but this one uses adjustable camber. I don´t remember if that was sold by Composite Craft or if this was aftermarket parts.
I had the split frontend using 2° camber parts.

I have to politely disagree. Attached is my manual from my Super Sport.
Th Bolink model that did not use 2 shocks in the rear was the Sport '91. It had a basic pogo stick suspension attached to the T bar.
