Hmm... understandable that the plastic has been heat-rotted with time.
But as long as you've got the core, you could probably still wind your
own replacement if you're really up against it. Just use the same gauge
wire and count the number of turns. And you could cut your own
replacement plastic parts from raw material. Or get it from other scrap
transformers.
Sure, you could buy a new one if it's still available. I just like to
see what I can do with what's available. I once saw my dad fix a
garage-door opener with a popsicle stick. :)
