Hi Guys
I will see if I can get some high res images of the photo finish on the set I have.
I know there are samples on the "Alternative radio forum" in their gallery of the striped band. I'll get a link if I can find them.

The 38-62 is the one with a full front photo finish? You may have to find a burled wood image to make your own, or check around and se if someone can scan the front of a whole cabinet.
I would probably try and redo the cabinet as original. but there is a member at the other site that had completely reveneered a similar set. It wasn't a photofinish set, but you could go that route if it is impossible to recreate the photo grain.

I'll see if I can get the images of the photo finish from the 42-380 tomorrow evening if I can.

Gary.
