Subject. Spares for Viveroy lathe

I am part of a small group of retired engineers who are renovating a horizontal steam mill engine. We have been given a Viceroy centre lathe type, TDS 4BG. This taken from the pictures that I have of Viceroy lathes. The problem is that it was dismantled some years ago and stored. We have all the parts except the counter shaft that goes between the motor and the headstock. Can any body help us. Is there a counter shaft available or sketches, drawings, photgrahs so that I can make one up. I am willing to pay any costs incurred in making drawings of photgraphs.

No, I don't think it will.
The TDS4 was one of the older 5" models, with an underdrive motor.

I thought there was a manual and parts list for the TDS models in the old DO.
