I have enough easier chassis that I can't do yet. I gotta learn to check coils and tweek things like all you guys do. Many of the radios I have need more than just caps. I have finished my 45 but still get nothing, not a sound. so there is obviously something further wrong than just the caps. I don't even know where to start. Gotta get more reading in before I get I to that. The past owner said he jumped it and it played well but I don't know what the heck that means...

As for the cabinet, if I can't hide the cracking I may just go a bit darker on the curved sides.
