For the want of a zipper......

[Monsoon]

Well, I need a zipper for my MA-1.

I know that vintage productions sells replacement zips, but just not too keen on shelling out that much for a zipper in a beater jacket. If I was restoring something, I probably would, but this is just a nice, wearable jacket and not too concerned about having everything original. Just want something that looks good and works.

So, anyone have any luck in finding something like this???

Thanks!

I have a box dated 1997 of NOS Scovill zippers that look like this (except dark green tape at top/bottom, not orange):

Is this the type of zipper you want? Teeth length is 26.5".
