I got over to my Parents' house a few days ago. (See my post with a ton of pics). During my initial inspection when I picked it up and left it at my parents house, I missed the routered slots inside the doors. As I have some experience as a woodworker, I immediately recognized them as a sign there used to be pockets for storage in there. I have enough experience that I could fashion replacements, but it would be nice to have detail pics to see what they look like.
Hint, Hint, Skip.

Beautiful job! Is that the original grille cloth?

The center grill cloth is a new Repo from Richmond. The two small pieces over the clarifiers are from an original larger piece I was able to salvage. The original cloth in the radio when I got it was bright red. Man was it ugly.
Thank you.

Beautiful radio, Skip!
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.
