May not have been such a good deal

Today I attended a camera show in Toledo Ohio. To my suprise there were 3 Leitz Focomat V 35 Enlargers for sale there.They were all sold in a matter of an hour I purchased the best one for $250 the other two went for $200 each. Now for the problem when they werw taken out of service and placed in storage the lamp assemblys were removed not just the bulb the entire unit.Anyone have any clue as to where I might find parts.Any help will be appreciated.

Start by calling the service dept of Leica in New Jersey. Unlike the old E. Leitz days they are extremely helpful.

Also, since this is such a classic enlarger, maybe somebody makes a cold light head or VC head you could just upgrade to.
