I decided to revive this project.  The radio has been sitting on the shelf for nearly 3 years since I restored it.  The coffin cabinet has been sitting on the floor, in my way, for the same amount of time.  I decided to get it out of my way by restoring the cabinet since the original finish was severely disfigured.  Here is the F-2-A speaker repainted.  The fine gold stripes were a pain and certainly not perfect, but the best I can do.  The grille cloth is original and a bit stained, but it will remain. The radio is playing Zoomer radio 740AM as I type this.  This radio seems especially sensitive to signal strength.  Makes me appreciate AVC all the more!  The rest of the cabinet is painted, but I am waiting for some rivets to re-attach the escutcheons.  Will post a pic of the finished product when I get those.  Then the completed radio will go back on the shelf.  I don't really enjoy listening to it!
