Looking for OLD tip

Any one have ANY idea where I can get hold of one of these? [www.rodbuilding.org] or these guides (I need two)) [www.rodbuilding.org]

The rod owner is 70 years old and the rod belonged to his Father and he is trying to get it restored. I would appreciate any help

I would appreciate it. I'll keep my fingers crossed, I would really like to help the guy out (this is a straight cost only thing) He wants to keep passing this rod on.

Mick,Your email is hidden. This is what I need Can you contact me if you have them
The tip is really odd. The tube at the tip end is .25" and at the open end it's.29" (exterior measuments as It's stil on the rod, which is wood)I assume that it also had a red insert. The guides are .30" inside insert opening and .64" outside of frame. They have dark red inserts but I don't know the material. I need two of the guides
