[Rhodes22-list] Broken outhaul car

Does anyone have pictures of the various versions of the outhaul car?  Mine is a metal piece with one very small pulley and another only slightly larger pulley. 

I wish I had taken pictures yesterday as I was replacing one of those worn pulleys. I noticed an empty threaded hole in top of the car where I assume a bolt of some type should be to anchor it in place?  Mine just slides around in the track by hand but seems to only serve to guide the outhaul line through the end of the boom and I can't see how it would work if it slid in the track with the end of the sail.   Or is it only locked in another position for "reefing" the IMF sail?  I haven't needed to do that yet so maybe that's what I'm missing...
