Congratulations Gene, it looks like you're ready for Christmas eight months early 
You can find some original knobs or save a few $$$ and get nice reproductions. Renovated Radios is now making some very nice Z knobs:

When you decide to retire that festive grille cloth Kenny Richmond is almost set to release a couple of patterns that will work for you. The first is the famous swirl pattern followed by the block pattern, both of those were used in the 9-S-262's:

As I mentioned in your other thread the 9-S-262 was the first Zenith console I bought many moons ago and it still resides in my collection. That 6T5 is just icing on the cake, congratulations!
