Rare Truetone Tombstone twin speaker
#26

Pleased to say the cabinet turned out Bad to the bone like my others , I did switch the cloth and I think this cloth looks much nicer than what was in there before. I busted one of the speaker cones right at the voice coil and is now needing to be reconed, the radio is playing but is needing some more work to get it playing 100% . So for now it will sit until speaker is reconed then will finish with chassis. Sure does look beautiful , I have 3 radios at the shop waiting for completion and what sucks about the airline is the transformer is shot and will have to order a new one from antique electric supply, so that one is on hold also till I get the trans replaced .
