'71 Lav Faucet fixed!

Compared to what repair problems some folks have, ours are minor, but we overcame what I thought would be a major hurdle this weekend:

The shower/lav faucet in the wet bath of our '17 safari was leaking from one of the handles, and after reading from previous posts, I was afraid that we would just end up replacing it with an ugly plastic aftermarket one.
We removed the offending valve, took it to the hardware store, and found what appeared to be it's identical twin. We bought a hot and a cold valve, replaced the the old and busted, and VOILA! no leaks.

I am including a picture of our faucet, and the label tags off the new valves, so folks out there know exactly what to get:
