[Boatanchors] WTB - Phenolic Shaft Extenders for Johnson Valiant TX

I'm rebuilding a Craigslist-special Johnson Valiant I transmitter which 
I rescued from CB hell.  I've finally managed to find almost all of the 
missing parts (including all of the shields).  I still need the five 
phenolic tubes which are used in the VFO compartment to extend the 
band-adjustment capacitors for external access, the brass hairpins which 
make contact with the slots in the capacitor shafts, and the "C" clips 
which secure the tubes to the VFO compartment cover.  The entire VFO 
compartment "box" was missing on my TX.

Does anyone have a "parts donor" transmitter they could scavenge these 
parts from?  These parts should be the same in the Ranger I, Ranger II, 
Valiant I and Valiant II transmitters.  I'm pretty sure they all use the 
same VFO configuration.

Please let me know if you can help me and how much $ you need.

Thanks!
