Gerben,
Could it be possible that someone has reblued the sideplate with instant blue? The changing from blue to brown is a common failure when the instant blue is improperly applied, especially over a long time period.

They are occasionally available on "eBay" at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend it as a referrence work. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" /> ViggoG |
