Hi David,
Here are the pictures of the Leica/Novoflex "Frankenstein" Telyt 400..
(Pictures aren't so good: Very dark day, so had to photograph with normal
indoor lighting).

I assume the lens end has a normal Telyt mount / is a normal Telyt 400 (Doug?).
While the bellows is great for close focusing, I'm looking for a tube to
replace it (or an entire rear tube) in order to save weight & space for most
uses.
The interchangeable camera mount is the classic Novoflex one.
A previous owner had applied tape to joins, screw heads and parts vulnerable to
bumps. I liked the idea and added some gaffer's tape to the focusing lock to
help keep dust & water out.
If anyone has seen something similar, please let me know.
Chris

Don't know about selling it, Chris. But I'd love to see a photo of this rig!
Cheers!
