Replace with a SunTour V - that seems to have been the 'standard' fix; to the point that I wonder if Lambert wasn't issuing them to dealers as a replacement. If you do find an undamaged rear, put it in a glass case as a collector's item. Everybody talks about the 'death fork' nobody ever discusses the rear derailleur which was a much worse piece of kit.
I am thinking that the Campagnolo Valentino Group would be perfect on it... unless I can sort a Suntour Original Parallelgram rear dérailleur
