I think it would be interesting to have some documentation on the original owner; was it the late parent of the heirs you got it from via estes? Were there other owners in-between? I believe its part of the specific history of that radio, and these models give a rather rare opportunity to look in that direction, compared to non-identified radios...
After all, its part of your bucket list. If it deserves the extra attention of having paper caps restored, maybe it also deserves a little more backstory?
