I'm glad to see some discussion of the older models. I use a Nikon F2
(w/ DP1 metered head) and Nikkormat FT (averaging meter), and I love
them both. I bought the FT over twenty years ago, and it still works as
good today as ever.
Here's a place to start on the FS:

You'll find a link with some history, and a *message board* where others
may be able to help you further.
Also, you can find the older 105mm f2.5's on eBay. I bid on several,
but my winning bid turned out to be on a newer AI model with the modern
lens coating. Standard eBay warning: know who you are buying from. If
I have any doubt, I call them to discuss the item and verify phone
numbers and addresses before bidding.
