All the parts were there except the retainer clips for the GG & Hood Assembly. I have the two screws for each side, but not the retainers. Where can I find those parts or what can I substitute in their place to hold in the ground glass? The part is shown below labeled number 2. Thanks, Attachments IMG_6469.jpg 141.6 KB · Views: 36

He's legit. He doesn't do paypal, so its a bit slower, but he has a lot of small misc stuff thats hard to find.

I've bought some items from him as well. I just contacted his website and hopefully will hear back soon. These Graflex and Speed/Crown Graphic parts are getting harder to find. Nice to see a source for a number of types of large format camera parts and modifications. Need to keep film and large format cameras alive.
