Regarding the base, is the one you have a CAST piece? If so, you might try swap meets and find some old rusty dietz buckets. The newer style is a stamped deal...

You could either have one machined or machine one yourself if you have a lathe.

Place a WANT ad in the classified section and also a WTB on the SAMBA...take pictures of the one you have and include that in your ad.

Good luck
