You can build your own. I bought a used crimper set off fleebay a few years ago for about $90 when I added a parallel flow condenser to my 84SD. New ones are in the range of $150. Then you just need to buy hose fittings online. Probably less than $50 in parts for what you need to do.
Ouch.

I need a source for those parts before I can go DIY. Any suggestions?

It's a car not a science experiment! Open the throttle!
