Alignment improved the radio although there is still some static at times. Since I did not completely strip the chassis I did apply some rust reformer to it to help slow down future rusting. It made it look even more ugly....

I did clean up the back of the set and painted it a gray that was just a little lighter than the original gray coating. I do need to find a period knob for the band switch but that will have to wait until I can get to Kutztown next time.

It all went back together nicely...
