In case anyone is interested, there are a lot of individual CA parts listed on EBay, including a Hand Clutch setup. Don't know anything about the Seller from Bad Axe, Mi. He doesn't describe his parts condition very well, for me anyway.

I have bought from Marty before. He can get a little crotchety now and again, but if you play by his rules, things tend to go pretty smooth. He isn't the most tolerant guy of any deviation from "his way"......

PS the characters you meet can be a lot of fun if you approach it the right way...

Glenn, you are being nice, I've bought twice and that was enough and I played his way for $450. I can honestly say the next big AC item he sold after that I would have bid $180. more than it sold for, so "crotchety" has a price.
Make sure you know what you are buying, I consider myself a near rookie/young guy compared to most of you guys here and his AC descriptions, selling ethics do not impress me.
But who am I, I just took delivery of an Allis Chambers!!

I've dealt with Marty maybe 10 or so times. As always with E-bay you need to know what you are buying and what you are willing to pay. He was easy to deal with and I needed the parts. I do agree with the comment that the description is not always the best.
