Thanks for reaching out to us. I am familiar with this operator, but it is unfortunately very, very old. There is no direct replacement, and as far as alternatives go you're looking at a lot of handiwork for an uncertain conclusion.

Right now our best suggestion is going to be for you to find a way to adapt our 39-020 operator (39-021 for the opposite side) and 39-504 track for use on your sash. The problem is that the design of this operator, while similar in the broad strokes, is still fundamentally different compared to your original. You're looking at drilling new holes at minimum, while more than likely you're going to need to either cut your sill trim to accept the new style base or have a carpenter make up a new sill trim entirely.

It won't be an easy project. I would strongly advise contacting a professional to do the installation for you.

Thank you so much for your reply. We will have to think about this and let you know if we decide to go ahead and try to use the parts you have.
