Bill,
Don't hold your breath. There isn't anyone out there that has been able to rebuild the old pyrex glass bulbs in a long time. RACS in France was trying to do it a year or so ago, but every one that they did developed cracks around the anode cap and went to air in a short time.
There are many of us collectors with multiple tubes that have gone to air, and would pay dearly for someone to rebuild them. If you decide to follow up with them keep us informed.
