The bearings are still available. And the spools are to.
I bought one maybe five years ago for I think $6 or $700. It needed more then I thought. The rear sets still had original paint but the fronts were bad. Both gang bolts were bent, I put ad in old allis and scored one NOS and one used, then I bought new bearings and blades, it had been used all loose so some of the spools were wore bad as well as the center spacers, I think only needed two spools. I took and picked out the best spacers and only replaced the worst ones, like one or two on each side. The one side I took and cut down blades to use as backing plates and the side I got the used gang bolt he sent me some with it. Now inside the spacers between bearings there's a square tube that the blades go on. I just went to iron shop and got what fit the gang bolt and inside blade. Think I covered what I did, and now I have a good sound set of discs, sorry was long winded

I bought a pretty nice 15' last year for $750.00 needed one blade, I diced over 150 acres with it and it worked great.

On another note I saw a smaller one, I think it was a 13' go for somewhere around $1300.00 this fall at an auction. The smaller ones usually go a bit higher.
