Update. I stripped the front panel and re-filled the grain. I have re-toned the front panel with Mohawk Ultra Perfect Brown. I think it looks better now.

Front - Reddish cast

Front - More brown

Side view- Reddish cast front panel

I was having trouble getting the camera to display the front panel as it really is. These are the best photos I could get.
