While trying to sand and prep the wood, I was getting nowhere fast till I saw there was a thick clear finish (lacquer?) that came off with a razor blade. After that came off, it took the sanding well. It looks like there were 2 different types of wood on the front and rear sections. I stained and lacquered, and I know it isn't show condition but it will get me by. Way better than it was. Be careful- the thickness is approx 1/32" and I punched thru w/ the razor balde. Had to break out the plastic wood, then dye the patch. Better result re final clear coat with lacquer than urethane.

Will try to post pix...post-85985-143139212096_thumb.jpg
