I had a good day so far. I got to the radio meet first, second car pulled in and he had a chairside in the back. It is in need of total restoration but I snagged it for more than I wanted to pay and traded some tubes. He loaded it and then it began to rain so not much else happened and I left. It is missing the back piece and 3 knobs. the 1 knob that is there is wrong I think. I believe I have the right knobs though. A few minor veneer repairs too. The face and the dials are perfect as far as I can see.

Finally got it home and even had it unloaded for me, Icon_lol

Here are some pics:
