Those early 80's system 3 sets had some of the best CRTs I've seen. I have yet to see a bad one and most still look like new. Does that use a 9-180 board, or does it have a large power transformer? The 9-180's had lots of soldering problems.

If you can't find any channel strips, make your own by scanning the digits you need from the strips you have, then make the strip you need in paintshop, or similar. Finally, laser print them on a transparency and cut them out. You might have to laminate the printed side with clear tape if the toner scratches off easily.
