I'm looking for:

Teletype Model 14,
     Ref. bulletin 1028,
     http://www.aetherltd.com/public/model14manuals/1028B-Iss2-Feb36.pdf

         Page 2,
         6930 Tape Guide, Left (for 5/16" tape).
         Page 4,
         71697 Clamping Plate (the pointer of the range finder)
	Page 6,
	55080 Bezel (the old Remington typewriter style keytops)
		- need about 3 of those; I can make the letter
		  inserts.

    A Model 14/15 synchronous motor.  One of the Model 14 motors
from the 1920s has an unreliable starting switch.  Fortunately,
the motors are compatible from 1926 to 1959.

    I have lots of 5/16" paper tape for 2B printers, if you have
any tape printers you want to run.

    The mechanical parts of the 1920s machines hold up quite well.
I've brought four Model 14 tape printers back to life so far.
Here's one:

I completely rewire the bases; the fabric-wrapped wire used in
Model 14 machines doesn't hold up.  Model 15 machines, of
course, use General Electric Deltabeston wire ("does not age
or crack"), but that's asbestos-based, so you don't want to strip
it.

I have three WU 2B machines and one Bell System machine (3/8 paper
tape, polar relay, fractions font, misc. extra electrical components)
Its typing unit works fine after cleaning, oiling, and adjustment.
If you or anyone else wants the Bell System machine, please let me
know.  I'm standardizing on the 2B.

Thanks.
