Leo,

I know this doesn't help much, but there was a dude selling a bunch of these on eBay about a year ago. I haven't looked at rocketry stuff on eBay for almost a year so I'm not sure if he's still selling them. I'd keep an eye out there for them though if you can't find any right off the bat from someone around here.

Thanks Scott.

Anyone know the seller or maybe even the buyers?

Does the Cox Saturn V use the same engine mounts?

Ok, looks like my problem is solved.

Got this in the mail today:

Correct :)

However the question now is when because I'm in Germany and the engine holders are in SC USA :rolleyes:

Ah well, at least I know I have them :)

What model of Saturn 1B is that? The Cox version, or something else?

Just curious because I don't remember either of the Estes or Centuri versions using the plastic engine retainers that you were looking for -

That is indeed a COX Saturn 1B model rocket and it boggles my mind that I forgot to mention it in this thread :o
