I bought this radiobar recently and WOW it is a mess...
Defects:
1. Rotten feet
2. Destroyed lid.. Fell apart in my hand...
3. 95% covered in mold
4. No chassis
5. No speaker
6. Rusty chrome
7. Many separations in cabinet and dried out glue...
Pluses
1. Feet can be easily reproduced
2. I have all the lid pieces and the mirror.
3. Mold destroyer and sunlight
4. Found a 610 chassis and 8" speaker in my store room in a bad cabinet
5. Chrome should clean up real good but I may have it redone...
6. It cleaned up amazingly and I can glue all the separations...
I started by thoroughly washing the radio in the sun with mask and goggles.. Warm water and a wet towel.. Took an hour and 5 rinses... I am flattening the lid sides now and drying out the sheets that separated.
