Wanted: broken FA80-320

I am looking for a sad, neglected FA80-320 that has a good 'back end'.
So, a lens with fungus, or smashed elements, inability to focus, dodgy aperture blades - anything.

My copy has been in pieces too long as the plastic posts that take the rear mount screws have fallen apart (fairly common alas). It's about time I fixed it

Maybe there's one lying in a drawer somewhere?

Thank you!

Had one that I took apart years ago - have a feeling I may have thrown it away but will have a look - if I find it will let you know Matt

No matter how many lenses I have owned - I have always needed just one more

A very late "bump"

Or either that, if someone wants to buy some nice optics to fix their FA80-320
Essentially I'm looking for just the rear 'tube' part - the part where the metal mount screws onto. The plastic isn't great and has fractured badly.

I need to have a clear up, and think it's a shame to just bin the optics
