Another Western air Patrol make over
#1

Here's one more for Jim Sargent's collection that I have done for him. This radio is a model 66 and the speaker is mounted in the back of cabinet with the 2 openings in front. That,s right , It was designed like that . You would think the speakers would be in the front of cabinet on each side but are not Icon_eek . This radio has a tuning eye and will look very nice when finished. Very uncommon set Icon_crazy Icon_crazy Icon_crazy Icon_crazy Icon_crazy Icon_crazy Icon_crazy Icon_crazy Icon_crazy Icon_crazy Icon_crazy Icon_crazy Icon_crazy Icon_crazy

Fred, a very nice job on that. Very unusual radio and attractive. I would love to see it assembled when finished with the electronics.
