1967 Zenith 25" (23XC38Z) working - almost

With new electrolytics, this set has come back to life. In addition to the bad lytics it had a super weak 3rd IF tube (what was the source of my bad reception I had on this set back when it worked before, that I always thought had something do with the tuners). But the first time I plugged it in nothing came up and I heard this awful noise from the degaussing coil. It turned out the thermistor broke. I bypassed the thermistor and then it worked, but it was in bad need of degaussing. I did what I could with the back end of my soldering gun, but I couldn't completely degauss the corners. It also needs convergance, which I don't want to do until I get the set completely degaussed. The thermistor is 100 ohm/ 1W, where can I get one so I can get the degaussing coils working again? Here's some pics...
