You can use RegEx to extract the numbers from the text, cast them to integers, add them to a list and sum over the list elements: 

import re
text = '      1       1       1 Old -> New'   
sum([int(i) for i in re.findall('\d+', text)])

text = '      1       1       1 Old -> New'
nums = []
for t in text.split() :
    try :
        nums.append( int(t) )
    except ValueError:
        pass

print( sum(nums) )
