Here is what I have. (ps: You may have to piece the below links back together 
again.)

In this pic you can see the x-shaft running along the bulkhead.

Look at the top hoop for the air cleaner frame, and then past to the 
bulkhead.  You can see a bracket with two bolts holding it on, and the x-shaft 
connected to it.  An identical bracket mounts on the other end of the shaft.

These two pics also show parts of the shaft.  Sorry I don't have clearer pics.

In line with the carb, there is an arm bolted to the shaft. A spring goes from 
the arm, down to the fuel line, settling bowl bracket.  A rod goes from the 
bracket to the carb actuating arm.
In the following pic, look at the regulator, in front of it you can see the 
actuating rod that connects the x-shaft to the carb.

I don't have any pics of the drivers side, but an identical mounting bracket 
and arm are on that side.  On the engine side of the gas pedal foot assembly, 
there is a long thin flat steel bracket mounted. One end is bolted to the top 
bolt of the pedal assembly and runs up along the bulkhead.    A number of in 
line holes are drilled in the top 1/2 and a spring from the arm of the x-shaft 
connects to it. Connecting to lower holes adds more return pressure to the 
assembly.

A rod from the arm on the x-shaft connects to the arm on the pedal assembly.

Does that help??  I can probably get some more detailed pics posted to 
Runcle's page later today if you still need them.

Regards,

Martin

Ok. If nobody has a photo can someone desribe to where it is fitted to the 
firewall please.

Originally I asked:
In assembling the accelerator linkages I have discovered that some pieces are 
missing.

Can someone please direct me to a photo showing where the accelerator shaft 
and bracket bolts onto the fire wall. I can't figure it out from the parts 
manual. 

I assume that it is similar to a RHD SIII, but that the shaft etc is shorter???
