The woodwork's back from my friend and looks amazing! After a coat of black paint to the inside, I was able to slowly reassemble all the parts. First checking that everything fits ok...

...then refitting all the wiring, including a new wiring loom made from cotton-covered wire:

...and the remote control module on the back:

Still to do:

- paint the flags, historically this was some red and white stripy/star pattern

- decals/paintwork on the glass

- figure out a power supply

- hang on the wall!
