Ready for finish
#1

Time to get the cabinets ready for the restored chassis’s.  Four Philcos, one Crosley, and one Radiola.  So much to do so many radios so little time LOL.

So, we now have 5 of the six ready to put back together.

They are all looking good. It does make a real difference when the decals are on.
   I like your choice of colors,,not too  overly done.
    
It must be nice to be able to do cabinet refinishing during the winter
  I have to wait another three months   before I can think about getting to the cabinets.
