Transmission Problems on David Bradley Suburban

I had some noise and a bad leak in my 59 transmission. I noticed the clutch/pinion shaft was wobbly. When I tore into it, it looks like the bushing was left to go bad and the big gear and pinion have worn pretty rough. Is the only source of parts a good donor unit for these old horses?

I got to show it off at a couple of shows and plowed a little with it before I got too scared to run it more.
