Finished it last night. Model 70 cabinet, model 60 knobs with a model 20 chassis and had to modify a model 70 speaker to make it a model 20 speaker. Many many thanks to our man Chuck for the guidance and advice and a big thanks to Dick Oliver who fabricated that model 70 front grill panel to accept the model 20 chassis. Dick, it worked out great. I'll probably pick up some proper model 20 knobs for it but in the mean time, I'm enjoying it as is. Icon_biggrin
