Well it’s finally done. Drove 6 hours round trip 11 years ago to Maryland for this radio. Did the electronics 10 years ago but kept procrastinating on refinishing the cabinet as it’s not my favorite thing to do at all. So this will probably be the last floor model I will be buying just because cabinet refinishing is a long tedious job and we only have room for one!
