Default 1967 console reinforcement bracket

I am replacing my center parking brake console with a new one and I noticed that it was missing (I think) a few brackets. The front lower reinforcement bracket and the lower rear console bracket. I have the assembly manual and it is hard to determined if the lower front is glassed in or riveted on top of the fiberglass. Can anyone give me some direction here.

The bracket in your photo is riveted to the body with soft aluminum rivets. then the parking brake lever bolts down on top of it. Then there is a reinforcement bracket that bolts to the parking brake console which then bolts onto the luggage stop panel behind the seats. Everything is available from the typical suppliers.
