i am in the process of putting this setup in my 73 camaro. i purchased the rear disassembled and i am fairly sure i have all the pieces needed. i need to know how the e brake bracketry is assembled on each side. i thought one e brake cable entered the bottom on one side and the top on the other. the moveable arm is supposed to be flat or have a bend .. i think someone rested the rear on these brackets and they are bent from that. also what size is the nut that holds this moveable arm to the caliper.

pics of each side showing the position of the brackets as viewed from the back side (shock side) would be real hepful. my manual has no info on this at all.

Also, i need to purchase ALL parking brake parts to hook this up. again, my car was bought a bare shell so i need EVERYHING. i do have the e brake pedal and the cable coming off the pedal through the floor. that is it.
i need a complete list of parts to get things working. also, pics will help here and a source for parts with reasonable prices. any info you have will help as i am starting from scratch. adjusting info, etc.

thanks a bunch in advance..

I have the setup on my car, sorry don't have any pictures, my setup sucks, My e brake doesn't work and now i think that my left caliper isn't workin right. I have a digital camera but don't have the cable to hook it up to the computer, get my email adress and when i have a chance i will get you some pictures. Oh yeah i got the correct e brake cables from The GM dealership, actually it was pontiac, but same thing.
