A new haul

As part of the haul, there was a big cardboard box containing the TU80 in
a somewhat odd metal frame. At first I thought it was a frame used to
move the tapedrive around in an easy manner, as it was designated a 'swap'
unit, but looking in a manual I found, it turns out to be the original
shipping frame.

The drive itself is almost dust free, letting me to believe that this
drive may never have been used. There is also a box containing the parts
to mount it horizontally in a cabinet, like the TU-81+.

Now, I already have one TU80 mounted vertically in a rack, and I would
like to do the same with this one. So, I'm basically looking for the
following parts : a set of hinges, the stiffener bar, a door and the
positioner (which prevents the drive itself to swing around when not
locked).

Anyone able to help me or point me to someone who has such parts?

I may have other items for swap.

Thanks,

Ed
