I'd talk to one of the dealers who also work on guitars (Jim Palenscar, Tom Bradshaw, Billy Cooper et cetera).
I think they are awfully similar to the LeGrande.
You're not likely to find OEM lever kits, so I'd just put in something similar.

I'd call the usual suspects, see what they have that's similar. There's oodles of ⅜ square shaft guitars to get kits from. Heck, a Zum might do the trick nicely .

If I'm not mistaken forum member Bob Callaway worked with Charlie at Derby and has been mentioned as a possible source for Derby parts.
Lane mentioned, Jim Palenscar, He is an excellent fabricator and has worked on my Derby with outstanding results. |

Charlies' widow/ wife , Margit , says she has parts..
Try contacting her .. Margit is on facebook
I'm not comfortable posting her telephone number here..
Keeping OEM parts on your Derby is the way to go .. |
