After doing a bit more cleaning it's looking better. Got a lot of the white film from the stripper off. That white paint is tough stuff! I think I'm going to up my game and try some mek to loosen up what's left. I have an original cabinet w/what I think is the original finish and it's pretty dark. If worst comes to worst I'll just add a little brown color over the white (mostly in the scroll work)
Did you see the chassis?? It's no prize either. A bit rusty. Will remove the power transformer and rf coil. Then after removing the rivets I can drop everything else from the bottom. Clean up the rust and paint and do the electronics.Will end up being a sort of long term project. Fortunately it's a pretty simple set 4 tubes/TRF BCB/1sw band.

After this one there are two more to go!

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
