Mitch,
OMG - that is 2 restorations that have totally blown me away within 24 hours! MIBS - what a fantastic looking pin - and the job you did on the restoration, full credit to you. These types of posts are very inspiration and I'm busting to get home to work on my Picnic from 1958 tonight!
Did you know you can buy repro backglass animation balls from PBR?

http://www.pbresource.com/news/bal-catw.jpgThey also were making blue and purple, I have 3 of each colour in mine, looks soooo cool - 3 red, 3 blue, 3 purple and 3 white. They are only US$2 each and make the backglass come alive.
Highly recommended!
