Tonearm/Cartridge combo for Thorens TD 150 MkII

I recently stumbled onto a pristine Thorens TD 150 MKII at a thrift store and bought it for practically nothing, ($10). I would like to upgrade the tonearm and cartidge on it for a modest price if that's possible. I don't know what arms will fit it and what modestly priced arms would sound better with it than the arm that is standard. Any advice or suggestions would be most appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks very much, johnnantais,
Your response is just what I was hoping for and I appreciate your taking the time to share your knowledge. I didn't know if Rega arms would fit the Thorens. Would you recommend an Incognito wired RB250 or an RB300? My system is Cary SLP90 preamp, CJ Premier 11 amp and Magnepan MG2.5's. I'm using an old Dynaco Pas3 for the phono pre. Would I be able to hear the difference in the above tonearms and/or wiring kit with this rig?
Thanks again,
runkster
