your reel doesn't have much collector value. These were lower cost reels sold by Montgomery Ward. Your best bet for getting part is to try posting a question on this site- which is dedicated to fishing reels.

on the right side of the site is "REEL TALK" which takes you to a bulletin board.

Also, you can search on ebay for a parts reel....

The other option, if there is an old tackle shop in your area, try there (unfortunately most are closed down).
