Meyer Orestegor on Nikon

My M42's are a little bit out of a job because they're not that compatible with my glassed Nikon adapter - and I'd prefer a glassless one anyhow (time for a Nex step?). Meyer Orestegor 135-2.8 is an exception, but I'd like to know if its possible to get a Nikon rear end for it: afaik it could also be used on a Pentacon Six by changing the rear part of the barrel. Is there an adapter thet fits the Meyer upper barrel and ends in a Nikon flange? Ring that holds lens and lower barrel part together has an 60 mm M thread (I think).

If your lens is a preset Meyer/Pentacon like in this picture

with an interchangeable mount part, it is possible to buy a Nikon adapter for it, but you have to be lucky to find one. A few years back you could buy them from a forum member, but he disappeared. I have one for my Pentacon 135/2.8, but I had to file it thinner with sandpaper to get infinty focus.

Maybe there´s some still around, or maybe somebody would manufacture a new batch.
