This is a Phrankenbullet I put together from 2 separate chassis. I originally recapped it with yellow caps but my conscious started bothering me....so I went back and re-stuffed everything.
I'm going to try to put it in it's cabinet sometime this week.

Looks very good!
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.

Finally got this thing stuffed back into it's home. This is a Maple cabinet (I think) and is supposed to be light...however the veneer on top had several spots that were sanded thru...so I toned the cabinet to match/hide the spots.

Kirk that radio is pristine. It's obvious that the previous owner was really picky about environmental conditions.  Icon_thumbup
