Amateur Restoration of a 1960 Morris Mini

Yep that's it. If you had the BT version with the additional blue wire it would ground to the chassis.

Thanks gents!

On the topic of the radius arms, the shop tech pressed the old axles out the wrong way, sheared the circlip and reamed out my left side. The new axle just drops out and no longer has interference fit. The shop will be buying me a new radius arm fitted with a stub axle and bushing kit from MiniSpares. They said they did the right side correctly, but I don't trust them 100%, so when the left arm arrives, I'm going to have them press out the right side to inspect the interior, interference, and have them replace the circlip that was also ordered from MiniSpares.

Yes, that's correct.

And I agree, that circlip is not right, it needs to be done over. That must be an early car, it has welded radius arms?

Yes, it's an early 1960 according to the chassis number.
