Zenith Model 7S 363
#1

I picked this radio up last fall, and now I finally got it completed.
  I recapped the radio , installed a new belt, and had to order new knobs and some push buttons.
 
    One side of the radio cabinet,at the top had to be replaced,but other than that  the cabinet was in good condition.
  I stripped the cabinet , applied grain filler and the toned lacquer.

 Some of the Zenith material concerning this radio states that with the tone buttons ,there are something like 64 different combinations
Of bass and treble
 What you see is the final result.
 I thought it turned out very nice.
 This is only the second zenith console I have owned, as we don't get too many of them up here is Canada.

I have had a few of these and still have one that I restored.
Anyone know what a fair retail price is on this model?
People will beat my door down to buy one of these.
Just curious, I have seen prices all over the map for restored and unrestored of this model.
