contrabass clarinet case

I have a Leblanc (Paris) straight BBb contrabass clarinet to low Eb metal. It has a case but is very beat up and needs to be replaced.

I was wondering if it would fit in the case of the LeBlanc USA contrabas clarinet case would hold the metal clarinet or

Is there enough of LeBlanc intact that they might have a case stil for sale.

My Leblanc Vito contrabass clarinet case is designed to hold an instrument that is 66.5" long from top to bottom, not including the bell.

Personally I would have the original case repaired. There are plenty of places where, in addition to having your clarinet restored, you can have your case fixed up. Even with shipping this option should still be cheeper than buying a new contrabass clarinet case.

Any recommendations as to case repair people?

Many instrument repair techs also do case repair, especially those that do large brasswinds.
