Hi Steve and Welcome!
Nice find! You my want to check out the cabinet restoration page. If you are thinking about the missing veneer on the front of the cabinet I don't think It will matter so much as it is pretty dark in color. All of that is done with toned lacquers. The '89 is a good little set too it has a SW band and a RF stage. I don't remember what the sw coverage is some of those set just cover the old police band like 1.6mc-2.5mc or so. But that will give you the 160mtr band.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
