I am confused...
nothing new! is there a typo here....
Skip referenced the need for a late style, but then calls the
cup design the late style...
the LATE model shuttle i believe is in fact the one that skip has.
(the one show on the top in the photo referenced below).
So did skip mean to say he needs an EARLY shuttle?

Skip, I might be able to help you....
no promises, but I will look around....
BTW, I have seen these on ebay once and a while. I thought i saw one 
recently,..maybe a couple weeks ago.


Regardless, here is something I need to find out...
I was looking for the rebuild kit in TRF and could not find reference
numbers.
Does anyone have those and where the heck did you find them???
Is the rebuild kit for the Early (o-ring) style or the Late (cup design) 
model?

Thanks!

James
