Good luck man!

I would also suggest you reach out to typewriter communities to see if they have any info if you haven't already.

Today I found a post on a Spanish marketplace with pic of a selectric with blue caps, and I thought: just what this guy in DT was looking for!
But it was someone looking to buy one just like you.

I will keep an eye on it just in case.

You mean the one recently sold? Yep, I saw that. Too much for a set in bad condition.
