Try this link. It may take you a while to source them but at the very least, you will know where to look. https://forum.polkaudio.com/discussion/199674/tube-supplier-and-cross-reference-thread?utm_source=community-search&utm_medium=organic-search&utm_term=tube+supplier
Brent Jesse has one type in sock at the moment, FYI. Hopefully, this link works...
http://www.audiotubes.com/audtube.htm - scroll all of the way down to the bottom. Also check to see if there are any alternatives that you can use. That information would most likely be at the top.

Woh, that Fisher is cool.
It is indeed, and @joebass3 has it looking fantastic cosmetically and... umm... circuitly.

@mhardy6647 thanks for letting me pick your brain on this and all of the encouragement! I started slow but as my soldering skills improved I felt more comfortable and really enjoyed the project. I'll probably buy a set of the EH 7868 tubes that are talked about in the link that @pitdogg2 provided. They seem to be the only new tubes available and are priced reasonably.
Bottom view...

ahem, I'd like to take this opportunity to squelch any audiophile scoffing pre-emptively
vis-a-vis @joebass3's choice of coupling capacitors. I believe those are Illinois "lemon drops" -- and, IME, they're fine for that purpose. That's what I put in my EICO HF-81 many years ago... and that sucka sounds good.

Unbelievable, so far there have been 4 scammers with a "friend" that has the items I'm looking for!

Guys ban this scammers.
76kingsissy reached out to sell me some resistors, I've already reported him once tonight.
Please PM these mods to bring down the ban hammer upon them in the future. -
Hey Guys, thank you for the heads up. I've gone ahead and banned 76kingsissy from the forums
