Wasn't there a fellow who rebuilds transformers located in Florida? I have
not heard of him for some time now and wonder if he's still in business.
Anybody in the list know who I'm talking about? Maybe he could help you if
you're not inclined to try a rebuild yourself.

Maybe someone in the rec.antiques.radio&phono newsgroup may know of him or
somebody else.

Good luck, Chris
