WTB Early 80s Suntour Front Mech - VX, Cyclone, Superbe

I am restoring a 1982 Claud Butler Cresta 531 for my runabout, my pandemic furloughed hobby!

On the hunt for a Suntour front mech, ideally a VX to match my rear derailleur, but am interested in cyclone and superbe mechs of this era.
The latter might be better as I have a 36T-52T crank set and from my basic research the VX will only allow for 15T difference.

Would like them to be in decent condition, surface rust is fine as long as a bit of elbow grease can clean them up.

Thanks!

Some pictures... All in good order, just re-greased it.. Slight corrosion to the binder bolt, but not much. Really lovely condition for 43 years old.

Thanks a lot.
Managed to strip the bolt hole thread where you attach the cable.....
Fashioned something together just need to find a bolt with a shorter head and it will be sound.
