A 66B restore
#1

Having finished the 66B chassis, its time to start the cabinet.  Here's the as received:

This cabinet is actually in pretty nice shape although the finish is not good it is nice and solid.  So far just the usual strip and glue down a couple of veneer corners that are starting to lift off.

When stripping the cabinet there have been more times than I care to admit that I've forgotten to measure the position of the PHILCO decal.  So this time I made sure I had the measurements.  I imagine at the factory they did so many of them that it came naturally to just position the thing.
