Need Mantua Parts for A Friend


 

Hi, everybody!

A friend has purchased an incomplete Mantua Pacific...I date it at about 1948.

He is missing the main crank pins(and bushings), the main rods and all the valve gear(including crossheads, crosshead guide, hangers, eccentric, etc - the whole shot. He also needs a leading truck, and the wheelset for the trailing truck.

If not too expensive, I'd like to make him a gift of the missing parts.
Thanks in advance !

Hi Fred,

Keep at it. Dan has a lot of parts that are not listed. If he does not
have the part, let me know. I have a lot of spare Mantua parts and may
have what you need.

Thanks - no parts I need listed. I corresponded briefly with Dan and am
now waiting for his reply.

Thanks, Joel.

What I need is listed below. I'll give Dan some time to poke around finding stuff and getting back to me. I have no doubt whatever that he's a busy guy.

I'll keep you in mind, of course!

Fred
