M25 Genoa track car

My recently acquired M25 is missing one of the track cars and I can’t seem to find a replacement. There’s a lot of options for cars with a metal ring or cars with a block, but one with the fairlead seems to be an oddity. What are you guys using and/or does anyone know of a source for one like this?

I’ve seen that one. They specifically say that it’s not meant to replace the regular car, but meant as an addition. I know it’s not rocket science, but I’m a bit OCD at times.

Thanks

Did you try calling and asking if they are aware of where you can get one? They are nice people, and you have nothing to loose.

I took your advice and ordered two of the nice ones from garhauer. I’ll keep this single one for a spare. Thanks for the advice.
