37-650, What do you think?
#10

IP wiz has a point. Good information up front is key in determining the refinish approach. Oddly I had a fellow do a cabinet some years ago and he found out that the wood was not the type that RCA had in their advertisement in 1946. He had a very good eye for detail, he asked for several images before proceeding. A gent from the old country, checked with me on the progress.

On the plus side the cabinet seems to be in good physical shape and has a future even if not redone right away, at least it did not get painted with Rustoleum.
