That's a GREAT old school filter! Did you get the baskets? The round foam pads are only available on Ebay, or you can cut you own. You can also use ceramic rings, carbon, etc. I live near you and 've already scoured the area. You will also need water in-line shut off valves from Home depot (plastic) or when you try to clean the filter, you'll syphon all of your water out of the tank.
