Glyn,
Diagrams help a lot. We think we have it figured out.

Productive couple of days....got the brake lines in including bleeding the brakes.
Got the Brake Servo and vacuum tanks all installed.
Fuel line is 90% done.
Carbs in and making final connections.
Feeling good. Beer time. Take care,

Fitting my antenna and saw that the black base is broken. You can see the space between the black base and the car. Does anyone have this black part for sale, know of a aftermarket part that would fit, or, a complete antenna? Thanks.......

If you put classic chrome car aerial in to EBay it will come up with loads of car aerials which you can either steal the plastic bit from to complete your own or buy a new one to fit. Cheapest is £4.99 up to £85 for a power aerial.
This one is just the part for attaching to the wing. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-aerial-C ... H&LH_BIN=1

Ok, I have the firing order from the firewall as 1-5-3-6-2-4. My dizzy does not have corresponding numbers on it and I have been unable to find the sequence in the Service Manual......Help an old guy out....point me in the right direction. Should be able to try to start Miss Kitty before Xmas. Thanks so much.
