T500 con rods needed

Has anyone got any T500 rods in good shape, Bill Bune pulled mine out and theres surface issues on the lower bearing surfaces which means they need replacing.
The lower pins and bearing needles are on order to him but without rods the repair is stalled. Even if you have only one rod that will help, two people with one rod will make it happen.

Does Pedro have his repro rods in production yet?

Did I read somewhere that GT750 rods can be made to work with some changes?

Jim I saw your message with 21 minutes to go and I jumped on the item before it closed on the bidding. From the photo it looks quite decent and its on its way this week to Bill for checking over. Hopefully its got good rods to build up at least one crank out of the best parts of two.
Many thanks again for your quick action on this, I had looked for some rods or a crank a day or two before but I never saw that item listed.
