    Nicely done. Did you have the reflector re-enameled or repainted?

    Yes I think Lamp base is OL51

    OL 51 parts Hard find

    Refleftor almost original enamel, I fixed it with white paint

    Tank partially repainted and old paint polished.

    My Own custom Parts

    I'm not sure, but the newer model, the reflector is the same size OL 50 and OL 51 ?
