So, I got back to Mr. Creature tonight.
Made some decent progress tonight. Wife went to see a long movie, and the kids were asleep, so I had nothing else to do. Turned on the workshop TV, watched some Monk, and worked.

Next, I moved onto the power box. It had many issues that needed corrected
Before pics:
Export power box, no convenience outlet, dirty
Back side. Note rust in the box where the power cord plugs in
Top white wire is in the wrong spot, too. Need to move it one slot to the left to wire it properly for US operation
Stripped box shell
After a thorough cleaning, I decided to polish the box a bit
Fast forward to the finished product
I'll make up some repro decals with serial numbers, labels, etc to dress the box up a bit.
And the jumpering plug is fixed
