Default Super sentinel armatures etc

Hi Friends, we are looking for any boiler armatures for Super Sentinel and some more mainly Cab parts and accesories.
Our museum (https://www.facebook.com/starestroje/) in Czech republic was in last days succesfull in rescuing remains of fourth existing SKODA Sentinel (this one was factory normalgauge railway conversion) It survive as complete chasis with wheels and steam engine stored in garage, but sadly no Boiler and mainly no armatures, regulator, economiser, injektor etc.
I will be glad for any info about chance to buy any of these parts. We have in our collection as well working SKODA SUPER sentinel lorry No. 357 from 1927
thanks and best regards
Michal

Would what you call an armature be what we call a firebox ?

By 'armatures' I think he means boiler fittings, Bob.

Michel, Can I refer you to the Sentinel Drivers Club website at www.sentineldriversclub.com. where under 'ARCHIVE' you will find Spare Parts and Drivers Handbooks, the ones covering the 'Super-Sentinel' waggon ones would especially be of use to you. We also have drawings available covering the period 1915 to 1938 which should cover most of what you need. I am the Drawings Officer for the SDC and my contact details are on this website.
