My F31 has windows at the helm, that have a section that opens via a long proprod, which Im not sure is original equip, my question is , are they original? if so, does anyone know where I can get a pair , as mine are badly pitted, and need replacement heres what they look like

My 79 F30 also has the same window arrangement at the lower helm, but the proprods are slightly different. Mine have a larger, knurled knob which I think likely is easier to use than that in your pic.
I don't know where you would get replacements, unfortunately.

You will need to measure the overall length of yours and find out the overall length of the replacements. I bought two, several years ago, for my F-31. They are a shorter than the originals. I don't know if they are the same make as those pictured though. I can make mine work but I had to make up plates to attach to the windows. The holes were spaced differently on the replacements.
