I would scour ebay and craigslist for parts or trashed units that still have useable hardware.
You could also google "Angela Instruments". He does a nationwide mail order parts service and has a vast catalog.
Also try the "other fender guitars" pages on this board and see if anyone has stuff to get rid of.

If you are directing your question at the Fender Custom Shop, they do not do restorations that I am aware of, unless your initials are EC or have bags of money on hand. Otherwise, follow lungimsam advice.
