Hi:
There is a fellow in Alviso, CA who tows the clip jr (parts) to our ACOC rallies. Unfortunately there is rally this weekend in San Andreas, CA. Not sure how quickly you want one but he would likely have it.

I am also leaving early in the morn for the same rally.

If you can email me your phone number, I will ask Mel call you.

Regards.. Mike

I guess we all have the same Clipper.

Hi Hank , Yea I got the same problem, I am restoring mine as well....
With the daughters help/  I live in Anaheim Ca and have noticed another Clipper about two milees from me.
Have fun at the Round up!!!  Wish I could go....John
