Re: Need help identifying/finding 41 160 special window crank

Some years back when I was restoring my 40, 1808 I needed some replacement handles and cranks. These being used on only one year and senior models. It took me a bit, but I went to a few art schools, and finally found a starving artist that was somewhat familiar in casting brass and bronze for some statues he had made. Gave him some of my good handles, in a couple of weeks he had made molds, and had more handles than I could possibly use. He had a few dollars, and I had some handles. If you can read and have some time you could cast these yourself. But it is a lot of work. If there is someone local that fools around with making statues, he or she surely could cast handles. And you might try local artist fairs.
