This was an interesting set to restore... instead of sliding a chassis out of the back of a cabinet, this one lifts out the top! And the phonograph chassis & front door assembly are all part of one chassis! You have to unscrew a piece of wood trim over the door to be able to lift the chassis out. Anyhow, here are some heavily flashed photos of how it turned out....

   

   

Freshly flocked turntable visible through the slot. I'm becoming quite the little flocker! Icon_lol
