That style handle is shown in the 54 and later accessory folders. No 53 info on site but if other sources identified it as available in 53 it is very possible. The hand held light in the 51 accessory folder looks to be a much different shape.
Can't get a good grasp on the actual bulb type or size from the photos but have you tried taking the bulb out and see if there are any numbers on the back. It looks like a sealed beam type PAR 36 style spotlight bulb but that one may be too large in diameter or depth. If it is a regular type socketed bulb then it should be fairly easy to find a replacement.
Modern cigarette lighter power plugs and sockets can be found on Amazon and probably on ebay as well but if you don't want a modern look, finding a NOS plug or some old item on ebay you can remove the plug from may be the only option.. If that is the old style cloth covered cord, not sure it will fit in the strain reliefs typical with modern plugs.
