To check if the primer coloured throttle linkage is correct, look at how the arm lines up with the hole in the floor where the pedal link comes through. The link through the floor to the pedal is a straight rod so it will only work if the linkage is the right way round, making the rod roughly at right angles to the floor panel. You may need to change the orientation to get the long and short arms on the correct side of the linkage. One way is obviously wrong and the other much better. (Of course, this works best if you have a throttle pedal in place to hold the other end of the rod through the floor.)
With respect to the need for shocks - the C60-X didn't have rear shocks. I don't know if the combination of loaded weight and friction made them un-necessary or whether the articulation of the axles was more than the period shocks were able to handle (I suspect the latter).
