generator brushes versus an alternator change out

I had my 12V generator brushes run down on me. I went to a local generator shop and he wasn't interested in rebuilding it. Said he had bad luck with stuff this old. I don't have a problem pulling the thing apart myself and cleaning up the comm, and putting in new brushes. I'm looking for a supplier for the brushes for an old autolite. VPW just has alternator brackets & such. I searched the archives with a mixed result of info. Is there any help out there? I'd rather stick with the generator at this point rather than converting over to an alternator unless you guys can talk me into it (like it's the only real alternative). I'm aware of all the wire size issues of a change out.
