Zenith 12s370 Refinish
#1

Today I finished the cabinet on my BIG zenith 12s370 console, this radio will certainly draw attention to any room it may be sitting in. Its a stunning design and the color and lacquer finish is something else. I will post more pics when I get it all done.

Rear view, freshly painted dark zenith blue , smells like it just came out of the paint shop at Zeniths cabinet dept.

Sorry for placing this post here , can moderator move to ( other radios ), I quit drinking six years ago and I'm not on drugs, so that only leaves one thing. (PAY ATTENTION dam it )

Fred as usual another fine job.. With the cabinet work you do the owners must be tickled pink when they pick it up! Five stars my friend! Icon_clap

Finished up my big zenith, I must say its a real nice radio, Sounds very good and looks great. I always wanted one of these radios and now I can enjoy it and I will be playing some Swing music such as the great Glenn Miller and his orchestra, Tommy Dorsey, Artie Shaw, Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington and many others. Thanks for the complements on my handy work.
