Ron,
First of all welcome to Healeys and to this list. I think you'll find it
quite a good source of information most of the time, though as with most
lists you'll find the delete button pretty handy! <grin>

You could list them on this list once, though you might consider not selling
much until the car is happily on the road. (experience talking here)

You'll soon find that repairable original is always preferable to most
reproduction new, especially when it comes to body panels. This list can
likely help you with a boot lid.

If you are referring to the actual routing and where clips and fasteners go
Sportscar Specialists (Norman Nock) offers comprehensive photo sets of
assembling the various series. You might want to contact them. He's on this
list and will probably respond to you anyway.
Hope this helps
