Philco 650B, newly refinished
#15

I feel your pain, Brian.

If you look at the picture in my first post in this thread, you'll notice veneer damage around the left control - that lifting veneer was caused by poor packaging. The chassis bounced around during shipment, causing that veneer damage. The bolts were also out of the power transformer, for whatever reason, and that flipped up and down during shipment, breaking some wires. One of the back "feet" was also broken.

Barry fixed the cabinet problems, and as you have seen, did a great job.

Fortunately, I have two extra 650 chassis, so one will yield a power transformer for this one.
