Ribcase transmission

I bought a 1275 engine and ribcased transmission. Bad news is that the ribcase once opened I realized was torn to heck. First, second, third, fourth, counter shaft all in poor condition. The last guy must have driven it till he was out of gears to ruin! Does anyone have a used ribcase for sell or good parts for the thing. I'm currently attending automotive restoration school in McPherson Kansas and they have taught me how to rebuild smoothcase sprite transmissions so I will have no problem putting it back together if I could get some parts.
The ribcase transmission seem alot easier to rebuild, because they are don't have all those bushings that need to be pressed out.
Regards,
Adam
