Absolutely looking at replacing the arch veneer and sides. Good luck stripping the front face ... hope the paint hasn't gotten too deep into the wood grain. To some it might be a diamond in the rough. Personally, right now it looks more like lipstick on a pig! If the 71B is a 'gotta-have' radio in your collection, go for it. Any cabinet can be refurbished, but will be daunting. If nothing else you could find another cabinet, or at least have a parts-chassis for another in better shape. Just my two cents worth. Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary
