Wanted: Torp 19 GH Drive Hardware

LAST EDITED ON Apr-10-04 AT 01:13 PM (CDT)
 
I've been desperately seeking the drive hardware (drive washer, prop washer, prop nut) for a Torpedo 19 Green Head, early '50s. The drive washer is a tough item to find, since it has a "D" hole to engage the shaft. The MECOA guys at Toledo told me to contact them after the show, but now it's a no go.

If you have any of these parts available for sale, please email me.

Thanks,

You can easily make these parts from stock Fox .35 parts, two prop washers and one prop nut. Actually the only part you need to "make" is the prop drive ..... just use a Fox .35 prop washer and tape the proper sized "D" template on, then turn on your dremel tool and start grinding, you might use a couple jeweler's files to "fine-tune" the "D" cut-out.
