Default Parts for a Halli SX-43

Is anyone parting out or have a parts Hallicrafters SX-43 ??
I am starting on restoring one and, while looking at something else
near the coil bank, I noticed soot on the bottom of the chassis. Close
examination showed that the Band 1 [BC Band] antenna coil primary is
fried -- data says it should be 26 ohms and it reads 8.8 ohms, so it is
well shorted internally. Above the bandswitch there is also some soot
and I found the primary of T5 the Band 5 antenna coil is also fried,
but since it is only a couple of turns it looks fixable. Alternatively,
does anyone have any data on those coils such as turns count so I can
rewind T1 's primary. A good excuse to make a Pi winding attachment for
my coil winder.
Thanks for any information anyone might have!
