Mechanical vibrators and tube rectifiers are sometimes expensive or slightly harder to get but there are solid state replacements available for both at many places. The rest of the tubes, for the most part can be obtained. I don't believe any are still made here but Russia and China or some of the old eastern bloc countries are still a huge source for tubes. There are several places that specialize in the repair and restoration of the vintage radios. If you wanted to go to non original, there are also many places that can install a modern multiband receiver in the old head.
