Default 70 Parking Brakes

Anyone have pix of the parking brake assembly? I am specifically interested in the Shoe Guide Plate, aka Parking Brake Shoe Hold Down Retainer on the Back Plate Anchor. This is for my 70.

I replaced the assembly with SS shoes & hardware kit. Not sure if the Guide Plate is supposed to move as much as it does.

Could you post them, and possibly E-Mail them to me at: boblindsey1@verizon.net.
