This one is finally done! Two years in the making. Home projects get in the way
The leather looked awful, especially next to the freshly refinished cabinet. I stripped it and used Acrylic Leather Paint and sealer to recreate the original look the best I could. It's not factory original, but it will do. The Grille cloth is from Richmond Designs, and the gold really pops when light hits it.
All in all, I am happy with the results. I wish I had room for it, but it's just too big. You can't even extend the antenna to full height when it's on the table.
Once the swap meets open up again, I'm going to try and sell it.
Enjoy!!
