58 mga.=C2=A0 Came to me mostly apart.

Have it almost back together and I'm puzzling about the parking brake m= echanism in the back.=C2=A0 Doesn't seem to be any way to tighten it.
Looks like maybe the adjustment happens up front at the handle?

If it is like an MGB, the main adjustment is to adjust the rear brake shoes= . But you can take up slack by turning the nut at the bottom of the handbra= ke lever, underneath the car.
