Up front, let me say that the pic is DEFINITELY an "after" one.
"Before" it had no speaker or dial glass, was filthy, and the chassis required me to rebuild the antenna coil, fabricate an RF choke, and un-do about a third of ALL the wiring due to some previous owner.
YES, I got it from one of the more,...uh..... "colorful" individuals I have met since I have been in the hobby. He was a tube collector who cataloged all his tubes by (drum roll): WHO he got the tubes from and the DATE he got them.
He wanted TOP DOLLAR for tubes BUT didn't care a whit about this set.
