James, thanks! Particularly for the tip about the wave washers.
I'm going to use a vibratory tumbler full of walnut shells or corn cob media to degrease and prep the stuff for replating with clear zinc. I don't want to be too aggressive because it might destroy the markings.
If one were to buy new M6 screws, these come with a headmark on them that says B-Y, even the ones from Stoddard. The originals, the ones the judges will notice, say "Kamax" or "Verbus" or the original manufacturers name. This is the kind of stuff that sets the restoration apart from the rebuild. Anal retentive? Moi?
