Just a wee update. The braid Ralph offered was and earth braid which I unfortunately couldn't utilise, so, being an ex sparky I used some old, now illegal, 1mm solid SDI and stripped it too suit the purpose of creating ( train tracks ) wires in parallel.
Pretty happy with myself I then started to solder and fix the components and wires.This sucked as my hands are now very soft and stripping cotton braided wires is a real Bxxxxxd! Blisters to prove it. 
Once again i can say that, this is a truly fantastic hobby to annoy yourself and also feel a sense of achievement as you bring these old girls a new lease on life and hopefully one day get to take her around the block a few times and share with your mates.
Still a long long way to go  @.@
