Hello Everyone,
I thought I'd take a minute to show my project in it's current state of restoration.
I'd also like to thank Terry for taking the time to help me bring back the chassis from the dead. We are almost there. If I ever get your way Terry be ready for a tall cold one!

Anyways, I chose a little lighter stain than original and I also chose a different grille cloth. The Cheveron pattern just didn't do a thing for me and I plan on keeping this radio forever so one day if you ever run into a homeless fellow pushin around a 38-116xx...it's me.
Does anyone know how many of the 10,000,000th replica palques were issued? I could not decide if I should put this one on but since the orginal took the time to get a plaque I thought it should stay with the radio.

Happy Hollidays!!
Bob
