Radial Parts

Hello everyone,

Just recently fell in love with the Cessna 195 and thought of a few questions.

The engine is obviously out of production so where do parts come from when overhauling the engine or replacing the engine?

Are there companies that make parts for them? I've been on several radial repair and overhaul websites and I did see a slideshow of a P & W cylinder forging being machined into a cylinder but on none of these websites does it say we make the parts for the engine.

What happens when all the parts run out for beautiful old engines many love?
