I've seen a few that sold in the past so they do exist. Anyone know of one?
Thanks long time pelican,

GA:

Since you are open to an engine swap, that avenue is likely to yield a rust free W123/M110 package at rather lower cost than sourcing outside the US.
A 240D from the southwest US would be the starting point. ROTW M110s are available in the US. Crack a pack of Zigzags and roll your own.
