Looks nice and complete. Chassis appears very clean. The earlier ones are very cool. I have a G500 that I found at the flea market for $20 a couple years back. I had it electronically restored and now it works great. I need to redo the black material on the bottom since there was some moisture damage. I also want to put a couple of new hinges on the bottom. They are fun to listen to. Whenever I buy a radio via eBay, I always stress to the seller "please package very, very carefully to help avoid any potential postal damage". Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Nice find! Enjoy!
