Thanks,

How near is "near"??? I'll see what I can find a bit later as I get a chance to do some web sleuthing.  Best of luck!

The spare would be for my 1951 3100.
I was hoping to find something local. Not sure how much it would be to ship a rim, but I can do that if it's not too bad.

It would have been $40 if I shipped it from Alaska.
