Nobody else wanted it...
#16

Well since it was in the house I could resist removing the baffle board and have a look and the speaker. Got the board out and removed that awful covering that was over the speaker. It looked like an old bed sheet that was spray bombed with silver paint and a liberal dose of glitter glue. Under it was the original but it badly torn and will need some sort of replacement. The speaker I think is repairable but it's missing about 1/3 of it's paper. The good news is that it's got a screwed down cone so I does come apart easily. I took a quick look around on the net to see if I could find a replacement it's a bit of an odd size. The frame close to 11" the cone needs to be about 10" or a little larger. Most of what I found was about 9 7/8. So I'm thinking a bit of construction paper and some watered down glue I should be back in business.
