I suspect finding truely NEW ones as you ask will be extremely difficult. Easier to take pot luck on a used winding from used generator. Also there are quite a few places that can rewind your field cores.

You might also consider checking the parts books to see which other O-D generators used the same field windings, I suspect there is quite a bit of interchange. Here's a listing of other generators as possible donors.

7th series all CD-840
826/833 CL-896
840/845 DN-860
9th series all CL-1005
1001-1002 CL-1005
1003-1004 CL-1130
11th series all CO-1177 or high output CO-1240
12th series all CO-1240
14th series all CO-1300

This generator & O-D field winding# list from Chiltons, perhaps Packard Parts books or better yet the A.E.A. books should be consulted to verify. I don't have a 6th series parts book handy for the 6th series information, but it should be an easy find. Sorry I couldn't be of more specific help.

CD-840 field winding O-D #23111
CL-896 #23223
DN-860 # 23233
CL-1005 #23233 superceeded by 23488
CL-1033 #23488
CO-1130 #23573
CO-1240 #23573
