Looking for options for an OD grinding spindle, for the aforementioned Rivett 103

The Rivett 103 came with a spindle that might be repairable, but it has a spindle that takes a wheel with a .750 hole. This cartridge spindle is 2.500 Ø and is belt drive.

Can anyone think of a spindle that would fit into a 2.500 Ø housing? Plain bearing, ball bearing, or air bearing would work. Preferably with a standard taper so I could use the wheels off of my Taft Peirce surface grinder which has Sopko adapters with a taper of 3" per foot.

Also looking for manuals and any other information.

As you can see, the work spindle and tailstock are not correct. Looking for something for that too.

Mostly dirt with light rust, but amazingly little use.
