I bought this radio last winter and during the winter I did the chassis. Now I had time, and the weather to do the cabinet.
 It has the original grill cloth, knobs, tubes and speaker.
  The chassis Just fits in the cabinet, with no room to spare.

Very nice work! It appears you have the very early model 20 that didn't have a dial light?

Yes  this model 20 does have a dial light, I just didn't have it turned on for the photos.
