This radio I got when visiting Skip with Terry last weekend.
Actually the only thing I bought there.
Skip said there is a potential problem with one of the coils.
Otherwise the radio is very clean, the underchassis is unmolested, the cabinet is refinished and is nice though there are some marks but not too bad to warrant another refinish.
I decided I would not be making initial photos, nothing much to show.
I restored a 66 a year or so ago, so 66 and 60 being essentially the same radio with a tad different bands, I could say I have some experience with this one.
Will start with checking the speaker (the cone seems pristine) - transformer, coil and such; then RF coils; then start the recap.

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.
