I have cleaned it down to a somewhat shiny copper but was it supposed to look like that?

Was it plated w/ something?

Were the letters painted? They seem like they may be painted in w/ brown.

Read your PM,s Fred Taylor
Checked and replied.
I went ahead and painted the strip, filled in the lettering and clear coated.

I also made new plastic covers for the original call letters.
