I listened to the wise advice from everyone including my internal voice to leave the Nickel Plating as is. Thanks for helping me with the final decision. I noticed something interesting on this machine during the cleanup; every piece on the machine including the boiler door, crank shaft, eccentric, Cast Iron safety valve...etc have the number 11 embossed on the metal; which makes me believe that this is machine number 11 of this model. Below are some of these stamped numbers on the different parts; it's also a good indication that the boiler and engine belongs together having the same number. More to come
