Looking for Mark VII and Mark II parts --

[cadman57]

I am looking for a Mark II headstock belt cover - the plastic, easily breakable one. The unit I have is the original green, but any color will work.

I am also looking for a complete set of castors (both ends) for the 1960's version Mark VII. Also, at one time I know I saw some information about the speed control cam someone made out of aluminum. I am going to continue searching for that information - or better yet, if any duplicates are available for purchase.

If anyone can assist in any of these part areas, it would be deeply appreciated.

JPG's detailed rebuild on his Mark VII is so helpful - this whole forum has been a thrill to look at. I bet I look at the restorations at least once a week or more. Someday, my restore projects are going to join the groups.

i have recently acquired a mark VII as well most of it is in tact. there was a headstock and cover last week on an ebay auction but it didn't sell will see if i can find the person who who held the auction and find out if they still have it. looks like im going to have to do a headstock rebuild on mine. i know i need to find the worm gear cradle or improvise. and the plate that holds the lever that disengages the crank gear is broke, and finally the key and tumbler is missing. other than that it is a fairly functional machine. and a definite keeper. have an issue with it blowing breakers, hard starting could be all the dust and grease inside the headstock bad bearings, and the one i don't want to think about a worn out motor. all these are fixable just not sure where to start yet.
