Question on Wurlitzer 1700 internal parts and veneer finish

There are a couple of steel tension wires that look as if they came
off a bicycle in my model 1700. One of mine is missing. Is this
something I'll have to reproduce myself, or are these available as NOS
or used?

Some of the screws, nuts, and washers in my 1700 are pitted. Does
anyone sell re-chromed or new hardware for these machines? Were the
parts common hardware items that I could find elsewhere?

Finally, the veneer. It appears to be oak. There is a yellow-ish
finish on the oak plus a gloss coat. Has anyone discussed the correct
stain and finish for these machines? I've seen people stain them
black, use paint to cover the veneer, and use formica instead of the
oak. I'd like to restore mine back to the original look.

I checked some old marketing material and it's called "limed walnut"
by Wurlitzer. I've seen limed oak veneer, but limed walnut is rather
unusual. These days it appears that everyone uses a faux approach to
liming. There's one site in the UK that offers the original formula
http://www.tryrelics.co.uk/catalogue/D/22 There's another site that
has a kit http://www.toolsforworkingwood.com/i...did=LB-0340.XX

Can anyone verify whether this 'limed walnut' was indeed walnut.
