Good for you on building it. If you end up with a nice set of short barrels and a good set of donor barrels, you will have a great BH. Saving one of that quality is a complement to every shooter who loves a side by side. Got to be one of the most worthwhile projects that you will ever undertake, what else are we here for anyway. Find the right guy who can do the metal work and is as excited about saving that gun as you are and away you go! Congrats on a great find, that gun has been waiting for years for you to come along. As one old collector said when asked why we love the old guns, he replied, "They harbor old men's souls", they aren't just old guns.
