Well guys is this radio worth the effort to restore it? http://community.webshots.com/album/482082943SEJFTX It needs TLC in the biggest way. I can steam the top veneer off and use the best sections to replace the missing lower veneer sections and I can glue the delaminated veneer back and glue the frame and clamp it back so that it is solid again. I am not sure what to do about the missing lower trim pieces, maybe make some more simplier ones and see how that looks. Thumbs up for restore or Landfill fodder???
