Eric:
Gary Crawford should have a contact in Newfoundland. They are on the NJMT mailing list. Alex Finch travels up there on a regular basis also and could be of help if you have not spoken to him already.
As to the interior, its fairly original. The major exception is the masonite that covers nicely stained walls. In roughly 1973 we took out the seats to take off the masonite but when we did we found that the wood was damaged from years of abuse. We put the masonite back on and left it at that.
