reasonseiz, it may serve you well to join up with the VCCA group in trying to find parts and stuff. They have a VCCA chat forum but not sure if you have to be a member to post there. Tiny, one of our resident bolters is still an active member and can probably answer my question?!
I was a member for years but with my "model year" found the Stovebolt to be THE place!
Good luck and remember, we're all here to help so let your fingers do some walking when needed. Slow and easy, one step at a time.
