I bought mine off ebay a couple months ago. But you can get one from DHS Diecast. I haven't finished converting mine completely to motor drive and possibly remote yet.

Here's a picture of mine Stepside took, but you can't see the motor setup. The gearmotor I had laying around turned the wrong direction so I added two spur gears to reverse direction but the torque made the thin steel on the Sandmaster flex popping the teeth over one another. I'm going to get a DC motor next to try with direct drive through a Lovejoy jaw coupling.

On mine I have a 12v windshield wiper motor you can switch direction and they have plenty of torque.to power it I use a 12v power supply mounted on the hopper that way if needed you could put power to a trackhoe or anything12v operated.I haven't got the door ex operating but I have ideas on that
