completed & future incoming restorations
#2

I empathize with you, Tex. If you're doing this for "friends", it's one thing. But, my feelings are that if you're going to do this for pure love, you may like to go for the gold, and the stuff you'll treasure for lots of years in the future. I did that long ago, and on one occasion, I had to thin out a lot of (nice) stuff, just because it was of a low priority character. Among that stuff, there were about 10 Scott chassis, and a couple of McMurders. Most of those sets went to Texas.

After thinning down, there is nothing left to want to dispose of, and still, there are about 600 radios here. They've been accumulating for more than 50 years.

Oh, by the way, referring to Trutone.......was there ever a False tone? Icon_mrgreen
