Who does engine rebuilding (brass bushing work)?
 
Hello. I have a vintage (from the 1950's) .60 sized spark ignition engine that has a worn out/loose lower connecting rod bushing. Does anyone know of a service or anyone doing engine rebuilding that would be able to recondition or put in a new brass bushing for me?

new brass bushing
The bushing are not made of brass, bronce are used as bearing material in model engines.

Thanks Kmot. :)

Motorboy, this engine was a home-made project on a lathe, so althought it might be bronze I think it is most likely brass (perhaps that's why it's worn out while the rest of the engine is tip-top).
