Subject: [CR]Naive question: Campy gum hood options

I've searched the archives, saw bickering about ninnies who need perfect bikes but don't ride them, but no answer to the question: Where do I get replacement Campagnolo gum hoods? What are my options for finding hoods that basically look right on a '60s or '70s Campy-equipped bike?

I see brake levers with hoods go by on ebay that basically look right, but I wonder how well they'll stand up to riding, or changing hoods.

Anyway, sorry if this has been hashed out, I just couldn't find it. What are the options for replacing Campagnolo gum hoods, if not with OEM replacements, than with something that basically looks right and works well and wears well?

Anybody got a set of 1983-ish Record brakes in great shape they'd sell? Need 1974-ish as well while I'm being greedy. :)
