My message got blocked from the list due to the photo being too large - maybe it will get through later..... In any case Jeff, you should have got it directly.
The brakes are 3-piston Lockheed with a separate parking brake assembly mounted on the bottom of the caliper. I think there is a drawing of the arrangement in the newest version of the factory parts book (the one that includes GT5 and GT5S).
Kind regards
Andy

Does your GT5S have the original brakes on the rear? Girling with a trailing parking brake assembly or something like that?
Thanks.

Indeed, here in the UK, quite a lot of the older OEM disc brake setups (for
example my previous Jensen C-V8) really struggle with the annual MoT. If it
were not for some "like minded" test inspectors we'd have problems. Luckily
my GT5S parking brake easily passes, but I do keep it well maintained and
do any necessary adjustment just before the test ;-)
