Default An Old Heathkit 2000

Hello...Am new to the site and find it very interesting. I have a "dead " TV I put together back in 1977, using my GI bill to fund instruction from Bell and Howell, using Heath kits to complete each correspondence course.
Long story short, the set has performed well for the last 30 odd years.
The high voltage section has a bad 275 meg resistor, in line to the CRT.
Also, a thermistor is damaged on power supply PWB. I have visited a few sites for parts, but to no avail. I would hate to deep six this in some landfill for the want of a few small parts, and the fact that my sweat and tears went into building it .
Love the forum here, and beg that someone has a new direction I can turn to for help. Thanks so much,
Pat Barrett
Olympia, WA.

sounds like a common bleeder resistor or focus divider.
the thermister is part of the degausser and is often sold paired with a vdr.generic common parts in the day.
here is just one good source.
