I just started making a battery cover for mine, it looks like they used some wood screws or something to hold the cover on thasty are stripped out or drilled out on one side- I think some kind of "T Nuts or something would go good there- also what's with the selenium rectifier, was it ok to keep using on the one you worked on or maybe a 1N00X? Time to check the pot for my motor failure issue.
Thx,
-Bob
