Well, you can download System 7 install images (And system 7.5.3 and 7.5.5 upgrades) from Apple, you might just be able to download the first disk image of whichever version of System 7 you have. Not sure what you have in the way of making floppy images, though... If you do have the resources to, that would be your best bet. If not, LEM swap is probably a good place to go.
Here's a link to System 7.0 and 7.1 disk images from Apple: http://download.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Apple_Software_Updates/English-North_American/Macintosh/System/Older_System/System_7.0.x/ They also have System 7.5.3 in 19 CD parts, and the 7.5.5 upgrade.
