Closed Commodore 1571 replacement heads (NOS preferred)

[Elerion]

Hi

I found a beautiful 1571 with a huge problem. Bad head.
I've seen NOS replacement heads floating around, so if anyone can spare one pair for a reasonable compensation, I'll be forever thankful!

I am looking for one, any luck finding one?

No luck so far.
I'll post here if I find the source.

I have a 1571 in fully working order, mechanic + electronic board (so with no case). I used it for my own c128 tower project, but I abandoned it. PM me if you are interested for.

Thanks for the offer. I actually have four 1571's, All minty, recapped, perfectly calibrated... except for one with a broken head.
I just hate to have a nice piece of hardware in non working condition.
I'm not in a hurry, and it would be a shame to cannibalize one working 1571 to fix another.

I gave up on this head hunting... ..., and sold the drive as is.
