 Here are two  zenith radios that needed some attention and so I gave them the (deluxe treatment) . Nothing fancy just a simple make over . One of them plays very nice and the other still needs some work to get it up and running but over all they are some good looking radios. I did not try to duplicate the photo finish the one radio although I could have done something with it Icon_eek
