Actually, it looks like I'm gonna have to do something similar and that's to solder the new wires on old terminals. At least it will be a fresh connection and not a 50 year old crimp. I can still crimp the insulation wings over the insulation part of the wire.

At least I can buy the center terminals. An old one would be harder to solder a new wire to.
