I bought a Philco B3101B back in August. The cabinet arrived broken, and I've finally got around to repairing it.
Unfortunately, I didn't take any photos of the pieces, but above is the repair so-far. I'm using this post https://philcoradio.com/phorum/showthread.php?tid=14921 of Ron's to repair the cabinet. I've ordered a fiberglass repair kit to strengthen the cracks from the inside, and awaiting delivery. The question I have is the color. It is a dark Brown, with some sort of lighter Brown up front on the control panel. Does anyone have experience repainting a plastic cabinet and what color/brand would you recommend to match? There are not a lot of pics of this model on-line, and mine is the only Brown one with the different color control panel. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks, Joe

Courage will follow when Faith takes the lead.
