Pics of a concours 67 traveller?

Any one know where I can find clear and comprehensive pictures or layout drawings for an early 67 Traveller, particularly the engine bay?

I've got Ray Newell's book and it's fairly useful, but there is really only one good relevant engine bay pic, and that's cropped and at an angle that doesn't show everything. Inevitable in a book that covers the entire range I suppose, excellent though it is.

My car will never be concours. It's got a 1275 for a start. But a lot of stuff has been moved around and replaced by previous owners over the years. I'd like to get as much of it back to the original locations and appearance as possible under the circumstances.

Bumping this one, as I too would really appreciate late Minor engine bay pictures, having experienced the same frustration with the otherwise excellent Ray Newell book. Anyone know if late Lucas horns were painted all black, or the diecast side unpainted? (I do get obsessive at times....)

Horn certainly all black on my original late car.

Thanks - carefully masked off the diecast side before painting and it looks rubbish! :roll:
