The instrument cluster on mine has the phosphorescent numbers which still glow nice; the newer radio dial has a different look with a mild green tint. I may just leave it that way for now. The dial on the older set is more worn, anyway. So far I have the radio about 2/3 recapped. The vibrator is working (it was a little iffy at first but I think it just needed to be run a bit). Since my 'other' hobby is collecting/repairing old radios, I was looking forward to this part! The set is working though it could be better. Once I finish the capacitors I'll check the tubes.

I'm very happy so far with the support out there for these cars; I've done a lot of reading of old threads-very helpful. I'm anxious to put some miles on the old girl.
