Sturmey-Archer AB3
I have an old Dutch bike (Gazelle) with a broken Sturmey-Archer 3-speed drum brake hub (honestly broken, not just out of adjustment). The model is a 1982 (?) AB, with a 90 mm drum brake. I am having a heck of a time finding the modern replacement, the AB3 (steel shell is more original). I can't find it for sale online anywhere, or any of the major suppliers (QBP, etc.) via my LBS. Sturmey-Archer has it in their 2011 catalog.
Any clues appreciated!

BikeTools doesn't have it either. Beginning to reconsider "honestly broken." x_x If I could get all-new internals, and find a mechanic with an S-A clue, there could be hope.
