Default Pic Request--1963 BW shifter anti-rattle spring

My car is missing the shifter anti-rattle spring. I got the spring from Paragon, but questioning whether the bracket is in the right place as it seems the spring would need to stretch way to far to meet it. The AIM is not clear in detail of this feature. Appreciate a picture if anyone can show one. Thank you, Nick

Here's a better photo after it was cleaned up and serviced.

Note the little separate bracket at the bottom for hooking the spring.

Thanks, your photos got me directly to the answer.

Here is how someone had installed it previously, hence my confusion.
