Russ, I want you to know how much I appreciated you sharing this restoration with us! "WOW" is an understatement! Icon_e_surprised I have learned a lot from your pictures and write up. Myself, I am still 'new' at restorations, and have a lot to learn.  I was (and still am)  a 'repair guy', which is quite different from fully restoring. I am trying to finish one of my early restoration attempts, which pales in comparison to that beautiful Zenith! I could go on and on, but more than anything - thanks! Good work! Icon_thumbup
If I could find the place called "Somewhere", I could find "Anything" Icon_confused
