Subject: [CR]Rear brake routing on early '60s Paramounts

I am looking at a Paramount from the early '60s. It seems to have no top tube cable guides, but the cable is biased (somehow) toward the non drive side of the top tube and a hanger by the seat guides the cable...I sure am not familiar with anything like this from the '70s and '80s Paramounts I have owned...is this Kosher for such a bike? Might anyone have some clear photos of correct cable routing on Paramounts of this period that they could send me off list or provide links to? This is an expensive bike and I am going to have to lay out some serious cash to buy it...it just has to be right...I have only seen some not very clear photos of the bike in question.

HELP!
