Well, the radio as good as dome; I put the chassis inside with the new set of chassis supports and the new bumper, all courtesy of RR.
However I entirely forgot the radio had no bolts top tighten the chassis down, it only had the "shipping" corner brackets that keep it from sliding back.
So I need a set of 4 screws and nuts, otherwise the supports keep it too high and I cannot put the knobs back.
I plugged it in and listen to it awhile: the sound is great.
Once I have the bolts and put the knows back on, I will download a photo.
But for all intents and purposes, this restoration is done.
The radio Kirk gave me about 8 years ago or so is eventually taken care of.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
