Hello.  I just "inherited" an old vertical piano with a house I just bought.
Apparently, the seller thought it too useless to bother moving or otherwise
disposing of.  As for me, I love it, and since I like to do things with my
hands, I want to try to replace/restore the basic working parts (felt,
hammers, etc), but I don't know where to look for the best-priced
new/replacement ones.  Can you help?

It's a Conover, and I cannot tell exactly when it was made, but the main
cast body inside has a 6-digit number near the top which I take to be its
number off the manufacture line, something in the neighborhood of 153,000. 
It also has 4 patent years stamped/cast into it, the most recent of which is
in the 1880's.  Any assistance in pointing me toward a good parts resource
would be helpful and appreciated.  Thanks.

Steve.
