Default Hallicrafters SX-28 in need of front panel, other parts

Hello,

I recently received an SX-28 from a buddy of mine. It is 'mostly'
there, except for the following:

1. Where the dial and s-meter bezels should be, there is a neatly cut
12" rectangular hole.
It looks like it was milled out. Whether this was a Hallicrafters mod
or a fool trying to add something like a linear scale, I don't know.

2. No S-Meter

3. No dial pointer mechanisms - just one dial lamp hanging on a cord.

First Question: Has anybody seen this modification before?
Second Question: Does anybody have a front panel, dial and s-meter
bezels, pointer mechanism, etc. that they could part out from a scrap
unit. Or, does anybody have a scrap unit in the New England area they
would like to sell?

Thanks,

David Goncalves
