help with 41-250 barn find
#1

Well I never turn down a challenge especially if it's a family heirloom radio. This one was found in my cousins wife's barn.  It's a 41-250 that was owned by her grandfather.  Many a generation of mice would also consider this a heirloom.  I've got the cabinet stripped and reglued and it came out nicely but I need some advice on the colors (were they all the same?) and info on where to buy the best decal and reproduction faceplate. I'm planning on soda blasting the chassis to remove the rust and mouse smell.  Here are some before pics.
Thanks in advance,
Keith
