Hi Wizard. I see them every once in a while on eBay but you really never know just how well they'll work. Are you certain that the motor's shot? If so, you might check into having it rebuilt (it will be just as good as new if not better). These guys have a very good reputation but I can't say I've used them myself. You might email them to see if there's someone in Oz that will do similar service.

BTW good luck with the fires and welcome to the forum.
