Mexico ? All of the ones i have seen came from Mexico and the ones in your picture look like they came from there, to me. I have no ideal where to look in Mexico but it seems like the best bet.

Cool idea. In my mind, the hard parts would be the fork, horn and the cantle. I don't think you would need a complete saddle tree to build the leather onto. Maybe you could carve the fork and horn out of a light weight wood (like balsa) and use it as a form for the leather. Same for the cantle? Just thoughts, but you've got me thinking about how I would try to do it.
