Sillette Drive Leg Looking to Buy

Looking for a Sillette Mk I drive leg for parts. A functional one would be great. This is the one that has the FWD/REV gearing in the head, and is on a bob-tail engine. I can get from England , just looking for alternatives.

best bet is to look on ebay.co.uk,they come up occasionally
look under boat parts and accesories.

sillette still carry parts for the mk1,but expensive

i will keep an eye out if you put a profile comment on my user id so i remember,i am looking for a unit as well for the "Y" bracket as mine is a bit worn.

though you might look into doing a cut out on the transom and mounting a 4stroke 25-30 hp long shaft outboard there ,a lot lighter than a diesel,and cheaper than a new leg and gearbox,and bell housing.
