Fortunately, there are a LOT of old lenses out there with the old clockwork Copal shutters, and because they're standardized, it's not terribly hard to take them out of one lens and put them into another. (There's an aperture calibration plate that's lens-specific, but you can generally salvage that from the original shutter). It's often possible to find a lens in really awful shape (fungus, scratches, whatever) with a perfectly good shutter to use as a donor.
