I dont know what to do! need opinions please...
I got this LC 759 yesterday and was going to use it as a veneer donor but I was looking at it this morning and the cabinet is really nice. The veneer is so nice I started stripping the drawer and top. the phonograph is missing and the bottom legs will need veneer work but the rest is solid and without damage. I have no room for it so I would end up selling it but these dont seem to have any value and it will be a lot of work and use a lot of supplies and time.
Please give me your opinions.
Worth restoring?
Parts cabinet?
