Long time without an update. The fact is I was very down after testing the screen and finding that it did not work. At least, it did not work with the driver board that I bought. I don't know what the problem is, but no image appears on the screen. The backlights work fine, and the driver board registers fine with my NUC under OS X Yosemite. I can "see" the display and its properties in OS X. Just no image. I tried the same with a genuine Macbook Pro, just to make sure that it was not a case of the graphics on the NUC being incompatible with the driver board. Same result.
The seller has accepted to take the panel back for a refund, so that is what I will do. So, I am putting this project on hold for now. Maybe I will buy another panel at some point, maybe not. Will let you know.
In the meantime I have decided to restore the Classic II, but that is a project for another site.
