The two plates (heat shields) with the long tabs to the left are installed at the foot area of the lower firewall - one on each side of the engine. I believe the two-tab goes on the passenger side where the heater core hoses exit the firewall. You should see studs and riveted plates that correspond with the tabs.
The triangular plate goes behind the front wheel (not sure which side) under the fender side vent and is screwed to the frame and wheel well - where the frame curves inward for the front wheels.
My '72 doesn't use that big shield, so no idea on that one.
Here are example pics of where they go:

These shields and their mount tabs will often be slightly bent up from colliding with road debris over the years. You might have to massage them back into shape to line up with the mounting holes.
The large piece on the right is the Catalytic Converter heat shield. It is item #3 in the AIM drawing below. It bolts to the frame under the passenger seat. It should be natural in color, not painted black
Was just looking at the thread again and I failed to notice something on the first go 'round...
That very long tab is supposed to be riveted to the floor pan through those two small holes. When this pan was removed, the entire bracket was removed with it. Aluminum pop rivets from the inside would work to remount it if you aren't going for points on a restoration.
