39-6 without the veneer inlay ;-(
#7

Morzh,

Yes bud,.. I am of that general  "keep-it-original" mind, although I'm not beyond modifications for safety's sake, ( it's getting an across-the-line safety cap BEHIND the switch,  and a 3-conductor power cord whether anyone likes it or not).

But with the cabinet, I'm sorta relieved because my refinishing finesse has not been too successful of late anyway.  I kinda wanted a wood radio for my bedroom, but I'll be satisfied with a  39-6 C I , .... I probably won't botch the painting as bad.

No, It doesn't have the bezel.   Icon_sad   I thought those edges might be trimmed in a black.

As for finding out what kind of paint it had, I'm not sure how to go about that. All suggestions appreciated.
