Default Powerhouse Generator P3

Where do I find the specific Powerhouse Generator P3 for late 1928? Or am I asking the impossible?

This type of Powerhouse Generator is plentiful. You should have no problems finding one.
I see them regularly at part swaps.

They show up on flea pay but I'd look for one that still has an intact brush ring. They like to crack and fall apart. Bakelite is tough but after 90+ years it's anyone's guess about what kind of shape it will be in.

Are they dependable and rebuildable?
