Hi everyone, here's some pics of the 620 I got today. It's my first tombstone.

The cabinet is completely intact and solid, but someone slathered it with a nasty coat of clear. Not sure what it is, but the finish is horrible looking. Runs, streaks, and dimples are all over it. Should be a perfect candidate to learn refinishing on. The electronics are more or less untouched.

It will be a fun summer project.
