Default Delco 30AD1 lightplant

As usual I need help again. I'm in the process of restoring a Delco 30AD1 120 volt DC, 3000 watt lightplant and need some assistance. The plant is powered by a Hercules ZXA 4-cylinder engine and thanks to enginads and sparkarcs readers I was lead to Jerry Biro of Martinsburg, Ohio who had the needed Hercules internal parts. Now my next BIG need is the generator control panel/enclosure. The original control box was "cut-off" many years ago and destroyed. If anyone has a Delco 30AD1 (or a 15AD1)control box that I could purchase for a reasonable price PLEASE let me know. My alternative for a control box is to modify an extra Kohler 4-cylinder model D (110 volt DC, 1500 watt) automatic start control box to use for the Delco. I really don't want to do that, but will if I can't locate a Delco control box. Thanks to Gus Simms and Don Wiley for their generator help and thanks to Harry for the Sparkarcs site.
