Dee: Whatever you do don't try to "clean" it yourself. Let an expert do that. Others here who are more familiar with Parker restoration experts in Texas will, probably, post here shortly. If you wanted to you could call my chosen expert, Jim Kelly of the Darlington, Gun Works, Darlington, South Carolina at (843) 393-3931 and discuss it with him & e-mail him some pictures. He could probably give you a "ballpark figure" on restoration.
Do go to this home page and click on "research letters" and order one. You'll be glad that you did. I am sorry for your loss.
Best Regards, George
