New guy with a PT-6 to Restore
#4

Ty to you both!!

Getting set to order the decals from Radio Daze...the wife wants me to try and keep the original on there, but color matching may be a pain in the rear and if I have to strip the body, not sure if that is even possible...

And I didn't even notice the knobs were different!! Guess I need to be a little more observant!! Good catch! I will most likely order the KGen-5's, although the wifey thing is liking the ones on the radio....

As a small side note, I have never restored radios before, but always enjoyed the ones my grandparents had..I always thought they were "solid" wood, not lam boards with veneer!! You would think that would make it easier, but having read alot of the restro posts, that doesn't always seem the case!!
