Please take a look at this page, and then tell me exactly which 60 cabinet you have.

Hi Ron,

I knew I was knocking at the right door!

According to the pictures shown in the link provided, it would be a model 60B, june 35.
The color seems far from right according to what I have after stripping. Had to strip twice to get most of the dark brown removed using the picture as a reference.

I am attaching files. The chassis is masterfully restored. Forgive the poor pictures, I used my BlackBerry...

Thanks for the welcome Ron.
