The old original stuff was made very well but the insulation was never intended to last 80+ years. Getting one rewound would make for a product with more modern materials and possibly better reliability than the original stuff. There are still companies out there that rebuild them but I don't know where to point you on that. I'd look for a local electrical shop first and go from there. You may need another fun products regulator. I don't know how well those things can take a failure like that.
