Is there any not to upcycle this White Furn Co set?

By princessz, 5 August, 2015
Description

Hi there,

I was trying to find hardware for the 3 drawer bails that are missing, but I realized that some of the White Furniture Company peices were selling for more money than other vintage peices. 

I looked online for other similar peices and was only able to find this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/WHITE-FURNITURE-CO-Hickory-White-38-Italian-Pro… That peice is in much better condition, so I wouldn't want to buy that for the hardware (even if the price allowed that).

At this point, I'm ready to buy some new hardware and paint/fix up these two peices. Is there a reason not to do that? Are these peices worth something to someone as is? The peices are not in great condition, but the furniture is obviously extremely well-made. I would be willing to sell it for the right price.

(I am still unable to find the missing hardware. I did notice the hardware is stamped with "1960" and a "2.") If anyone knows where I can find something like that, please let me know. They are about 8.5 inches long, but the center holes are 5 inches apart.

If you know anything about this furniture or  hardware, please let me know.

Thank you!!
