Is this a Sonett III? If so, timing marks can be seen without removing the whole nose. Easiest way to see them is to take off the engine cover (lid; remove prop bolt and then pull one of the two pivot pins) then stand in front of the car and look straight down. Filling the pulley mark with chalk or white grease pencil will make it easier to spot in the flash of the timing light.
When you say "backfire," do you mean backfire through the carb or a pop through the exhaust? Backfire through the carb is bad, but a mild exhaust pop is fairly normal on cars that have had the smog plumbing removed.
