Does anyone have a old drive housing that could be copied? My oldest is getting to be a pretty good machinist working in a tool & die shop and is curious to see if he can make one. Mine is going for now and I don't want to disturb it fearing it will self destruct.
Try contacting Tom Hannaford at Then and Now Automotive. I believe at one time he made some.

Been there done that ;D
Check out my old thread from the dead. Friend machined me that got me by for a few years until I tracked one down. I may have an old base, but it won't be in good shape. FYI- there was some new ones on ebay that were made in Germany ? I think for $399. Not sure if they are still listed any longer, probably not much of a market for them.

Guess he tried him without luck (?)
Found a thread on the AACA and it sounded like he was having someone cast new ones? Think his user name is pre1939chrysler ?
