Another compressor question

Apologies if this shows up twice, I posted it yesterday and it hasn't
shown up.

My father had his compressor die halfway through a job so he went out
and bought another. He figured I may be able to find the parts where he
couldn't so he gave the old one to me. It's and older W. R. Brown with
a 10 gal. tank. The gasket around the diaphragm is shot. It appears
the company is gone as well. Anyone have any idea where the gasket
material can be got. It looks like a standard rubber gasket with
threads in the middle to add strength. I'm in southern Ontario and any
help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Rick

Any decent old-time auto parts store should have gasket material in rolls. I
wouldn't count on Auto Zone, Pep Boys, or the like. Something like an old
NAPA or Car Quest.
