Philco PT-69 (Done), 38-62 (Done) & 41-22CL Resto Chronicles
#41

I think I have run out of radios that need a full resto. I have a fairbanks morse and the "what did I get myself into" radio. I am hopefully going to win the auction tonight for the philco clock radio. If I do I will use it for the step by step.

Do you guys want a full resto of a ratty cabinet? ie.veneer patches, cabinet splitting, lots of gluing kind of thing or just a simple strip and refinish?
I may have to get another radio since I finished the ratty ones. I have the lamp clock radio, that I am doing the new photo finish on, the 37-60 that I am getting the faux finish for,.... There is a bullet for sale i could buy and it does have a hole in the veneer and need a full cabinet resto.

let me know what you guys want to see.
