Source of string for an old trimmer?

Have a mighty old Sears Craftsman electric trimmer and I need a string spool replacement. The spool number is 85774. It is called: Replacement Spool & Line for 7979 Weekwacker II.. This was purchased in the 50's, but still going strong. I can likely rewind replacement string onto the spool, but would rather have the entire assembly. Believe it to be a .065" dia. string. Thank you. TOM
