This is only an idea - I have no way to say good or bad.
Keep in mind that parts may have been replaced by "close enough" at some time in the past. Though I know you are trying to be as original as practical, you may also end up doing this if you find the parts you ordered from Mac's better match your brake shoes than what you have.

You are absolutely right Grant , thanks .A lot has been happening . Brakes , bearings , oil seals needed attention . Installed a brand new carburator , fuel pump , generator and water pump. Primed the inside of the box .

Brake job
Adjustments unseized . Brake shoes relined and installed with new cylinders . Grease seals installed . Wheels re-installed . Waiting for banjo nuts and hydraulic fittings to connect brakes hoses . Meanwhile i restored and had a MKII No 19 set work like a gem . A good week .

On the other hand, it takes a pretty keen eye to spot the difference from a few feet away so I wouldn't cast aside that Mk.II just yet.
