Looking for someone to restore a Lionel 2671W Pennsy tender

[Anonymous]

I bought a beautiful postwar 681 with the 2671W tender. The only problem is the tender is not as nice as the engine. I am trying to remember the gentleman that works only with Lionel tenders. I bought one that may need repainted and definitely re-lettered. Does anyone know the person or the name of a great restoration service available for a postwar tender? Thanks in advance...

PWLionelEric,

I believe the person who you are talking about is Lenny Schafer. Look for his ads in the back of CTT.

Eric,
You can get replacement shells for these for around $25. Some are repros, some are NOS. Check with the parts dealers and ebay.

Thanks for the reply guys. Lenny doesn't paint and recommends a repro after I reached him by e-mail. I would really like to have one painted though. Just wish I knew who was out there. Thanks
