Next project: Western Air Patrol

I completely agree Steve. Originality is valuable to me, and I like to retain it if at all possible, especially unique details of the cabinet such as decals. I might touch up the toned/darkened areas.

Rust, on the other hand is of no value, and I'd like to stop it in its tracks. The whole top surface of the chassis is in similar condition to what can be seen above. If the set shows promise electrically, I shall want to deal with halting the rust, removing it and possibly painting over. The condition underneath is not yet known. And no - I haven't plugged it in ;)

I don't hold with furniture that talks.
