I think you can still find a decent deal for a wartime Martin 00-18. I just bought a 1944 00-18 myself. It's an amazing guitar. Original except for the tuners (which were included) and frets.
While I agree you could find a small luthier to build a great 00, if you want that vintage sound, nothing other than vintage is going to provide satisfaction.

What's your max budget? Depending on how original you need, prices can range from very reasonable to fairly dear.
