    I gave mine to a friend of mine that owns a machine shop and he is making me a few of them out of stainless steel. Before long there will be enough for everyone.

    They could be considered one of the "Holy Grails" of Maverick/Comet parts.

    If you can't find this exact part, they repop them for Stangs and with the right bushing, you can use that part. That's what I did for a conversion in the past.
