Help a dummy out?

1 Attachment(s)

I'm restoring a '73 Schwinn Varsity and neglected to take pics of the rear derailleur (the dummy part).
Anyone have an exploded diagram of some kind or a link to one?
This is it:

Says Made in France on the side.
Many thanks!

Wow. Thanks a lot! Just came back to say I found two pics just like that on Google, one of them from here. Search on this forum is lousy.
Anyway thanks again. Printed out and back to work...

Left over parts are NOT Optional, they ARE supposed to go on there somewhere! You can probably pick up a MUCH better used Suntour or Shimano RD for like $10, if that one gives you any troubles!

Got it back together (with no extra parts!) thanks to that diagram and 1 pic I found that wasn't a head-on shot.
Works MUCH better now. Man they don't make them like this anymore. Jockey wheels with ball bearings?
