It might be worth contacting this firm for a quote using your original plugs and sockets. I have no connection, (no pun intended) ! with them other than one of my interests is classic vehicle restoration.

  Hi John,

  I know what you are experiencing.  My nice looking CD-1086 makes
  interesting crackling sounds if I bend it.  I think age has caught up with
  the inner wire insulation and am expecting to have to replace the wire.  I
  guess the designers weren't too concerned with possible use after 50 years.
  At least I have nice looking connectors to re-use :-)  Does anyone know of
  an appropriate cable part number from Belden, etc.?  I suppose in the
  ultimate I can make one "aircraft style" with individual wires and lace
  them.
