Rebuild kit or parts 3 speed manual

I am trying to find anyone who has either a rebuild kit or parts to rebuild a 3 speed manual transmission for a 59 Plymouth. Specifically bearings, seals, synchronizers, and gaskets. I have my transmission at a local shop and they are looking, but cannot find anything as of yet. I will try looking as well, but was checking here to see if anyone knew of someone or a place that may have these parts.
Thank You
Tim Baker

Do a Google Search for Hemmings Motor News and search their site.
I can't recall the NOS Supplier located in my home state of Washington...they supplied the steering parts for a member down in Australia...
"Collector carauto parts"? Sorry, it's late, and I am exhausted.

www.fastco.com is their site.

Roger's correct -- it's "Fatsco", not "Fastco":
www.fatsco.com
They provided the parts for my Torqueflite rebuild (which Roger will also remember something about
). Pricey, but something about supply and demand...

I don't know if Fatsco carries parts for manual transmissions. I recently bought 3 overhaul kits for automatics from them.
I believe it was Northwest transmissions that I used to buy a lot of manual transmission parts from in the '80's, you may try a Google search on them to see if they are still in business.

Right you are Dan and Roger, fastco is a supplier of custom wheels and accessories.

Yeah, the name Northwest Transmissions popped into my head while on my way to a side job today. Thanks for mentioning it here.
and don't forget nosmopar.com. One of our listmembers got his manual steering gear from there, (although pricey).
