Is It Worth the Effort?

Pictured below is a 1938 S/42.
I paid very little for this pistol. It has a very good bore and all parts match EXCEPT Grips, mag, and the ones you can see electro pencil'ed off of the top of the toggle. I can't read the numbers that were there before this treatment and these, (as well as a reasonably well done re-blue) are the only faults I can find. Is there a way to fill these nasty little marks in, or would the expense of this far outweigh the value of a rather common shooter?
