I have a model 50 with a broken body. I am looking to purchase a model 50 body or complete valve. Are you selling ?

should be able to buy a spring at a auto parts store, cannibalize from a spring loaded switch, or ball point pen. and a steel BB, steel shot from a shotgun shell, or bearing. I wouldn't think rust or corrosion would be a problem because it's all in ATF fluid. I tried to find a body years ago. it took 2 years to locate but in the mean time a wood screw,rubber and marine tex. 7 years later it was still holding the leak in the body (an on the grounds fix). Capilano told me I had to replace each helm (4) they now have the check valve in each! The only one I can think of (Scat Cat) sank at the N. end of the state float in Port Protection. Joe talk to Jim or I'll bet Buddy could come up w/ something. The spare went with the boat when I sold it.
