I recently acquired a mostly all original L-1005. It is missing a few pieces of wire, and the woofers have been rewired with brown lamp cord. I would like to rewire everything as close to factory as possible.
The wire that looks the oldest in the cabinet, is just solid wire, with a green fabric jacket. Does anybody have any ideas where to get similar wire these days to keep it as original as possible?

When rewiring Lansing Iconics I have used the stranded, braided wire from Antique Electronic supply with good results:
