Congratulations on your find, especially at that price! I just went thru mine. It's a fun project, and they sound good when finished. I am missing most of the tube shields too. I have not had any luck finding any, so far. I did replace the tuning dial with one from Radio Daze. It looks good, but be very careful with them, as the printed lettering is susceptible to damage. Good luck with your project.
