Now that Paul W. is finished with it, it looks like this:

Thanks all.

Nick, most of the "Test Body" guitars were available from Mike Parks at The Rickenbacker Page. I believe he still has one available.

OK Ken, this one's for you:

This pic was taken by Paul W. before shipping them both back to me.

Yes John as it is now. I hope to eventually do each variation.(With any kind of luck). I got the guard from Pickguardian. Very nice work and perfect fit.
