Is there a bottom bracket cartridge that will work?

Hi All - I'm rehabbing a mid 70s Dawes Galaxy, and I'm trying to determine if there are any bottom bracket cartridges that will fit. If not, I'll happily service the cup and cone bottom bracket it came with.

The movable cup is marked 1.37x24T.
The width of the shell seems to be 66.5mm if I'm measuring correctly (see photo).
The spindle seems to be a 3U size from the Sheldon Brown page of bottom bracket sizing (https://www.sheldonbrown.com/bbsize.html), which indicates a 133mm spindle would be needed on a symmetric bottom bracket.

The Googling I've done has not revealed any bottom brackets sporting a 133mm spindle, much less one that works with a 66.5mm shell. But, perhaps I'm just missing something here.

Thanks!
