When I get back from fishing, I'll start hunting for one again.
Anyone have a Hemmings they could look into for ne?

Summary:

Hayward Instruments has pretty much given up looking for one.

Tom & Mike at Instument Specialties have one, but won't sell it to me outright.
However they will install it if I send it in. I really wanted to avoid this BS but it's like fighting a monopoly.
All the other places I check are like Sheep and BAAAA the same.

Those that have them, won't sell them unless you let them do the re-build. (which is easy & I can do)
So another 3-6 weeks more delay due to time on the back & forth.   :banghead:

Pisses me off. I feel like I'm flushing a Franklin down the toilet.

That's great! I never thought somebody would even know what I'm looking for. Or what it looks like.

I'm really happy Buddy came thru.

Now I can wrap up the interior and start preparing to do easier stuff.

Hint:
Saving for a Dana 60.
Santa will get that on my list.  :grinyes:
