I get a lot of my replacement trucks from train shows.
try the for sale section here or the wanted section.
this place has plenty of trucks to choose from almost any truck will work.
Not sure which Atlas car you have but I'm guessing it is from the 1970's. Is it three rail or two rail? If it is from the 70's I would suggest using Weaver trucks to keep the ride height low. Might need to use some thing to fill the original truck mounting hole. I think Petersen Supply Company used to make/sell them.
