Well the chassis is now working so now I can work on the cabinet issues. There is some loose veneer that needs re-gluing, but I'm not going to redo the entire cabinet at this time, just want to enjoy it through the holidays. One thing that I do need to replace is the grill cloth. It is frayed through in several places. I cant seem to find a match for this pattern. Its kind of a two tone copper color with a little black mixed in. Definitely original to the radio. After I locate a replacement, what is the best way to attach it to the cardboard backing?
