Instrument Panel "Piano Key" switch markings

Post by airrace »

Tell me please... looks to me as if many of the 1947 forward 140's have a clear plastic panel above the "piano key" switches through which the push/pull cable controls run. If this is true, has anyone reproduced these? Also, is there a common source for any other 140 reproduction cosmetic parts?

Thanks!

Steve in Montana (who is going in 2 weeks to look at his 1st prospective 140 purchase)!
