Any radio that did not kill anyone deserves being saved. As I understand if it did, it would be probably hanged, drawn and quartered and then discarded without a decent burial, so someone having painted it Hideous Bluegreen indicates it did not commit anything reprehensible over its life time. So it deserves the second life.
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.
I'm glad you got that one Kirk. I have seen your work and it will be a beauty when your done.
Paint strip day for mine to see what's lurking under that ugly paint.
Did some more stripping today wit citristrip. Only found one flaw on the front just to the right of the escutcheon hole. I'm going to hit it with lacquer tomorrow morning. Too darn hot this afternoon, 99 deg. right now.
Thank you Kenneth. I do feel lucky it turned out as it has. I will post 1 more picture of the cabinet after I get it completely stripped hopefully tomorrow. Then I have to finish the Western Auto radio cabinet I have been working on.
I have to work outside and weather seems to always be a problem. Hot, wet or too windy.
