>Managed to destroy (bend) the last of the three 'clips" used to secure the

wheel cylinder to the backing plate of my '70 '6.  Before proceeding to
bend 
the clip on the other side, I thought I'd ask if there were any tricks for 
fitting these clips.

How about lubrication.  If they are cruddy and corroded, try sanding or
wire brushing them and then a little lithium grease to help them slide. 
Once into place they will lock together and stay put.

New rubber helps, too.

Good luck
