Need some brake parts for a 79
Need some help guys. My daughter's 79 is almost ready to drive. I need a few brake parts. I need the toggle lever from the drivers rear. This is the lever the Hand Brake cable connects to. I need the washer and nut that hold it on as well. On the picture attached it's 23, 24, 25 and 26.
Hopefully someone has a spare!

Been discussed 4 times now in the last month. 79-81 brake master kits are NLA. The easiest thing to do is find an 82-83 to swap in.

I had to replace my 79 with a 82-83 part
from rockauto.com, the vacuum port on mine is in the wrong place so I had to run the vacuum line without the firewall bracket, I also replaced the master cyl with a 81-83 part, the brake line ports are reversed on this but it has made no difference as per nismopick's answer to my brake bias question that the proportioning valve controls the brake bias, also I had to bend my brake lines about an inch and remove the fender bracket securing one of the lines for it to match up to the holes.
don't forget to bench bleed the master cyl

For my 82-83 booster swap into my S30, I clocked the booster 180*. I don't think it would work on an S130 tho?

I replaced the 79 master cylinder and booster with the 83. It works great. I did have to bend/swap the front/back lines since the 83 is reversed. I found an 83 rebuilt MC but the old one is working fine for now.
