I in fact wrote the guy about 2 weeks ago about the RCA (he has it listed on CL for $95 also) but no reply so far.
As for the Majestic it has been on my watch list but it is reserve so I do not know what he really wants. 120 miles too.
Ron,
yeah, I know, the 40-s chassis, all rubber.
But I have decided I am going to be judicious about it, the radio looks so clean and the finish preserved so well (and the chassis has not been really cleaned, maybe dusted) and the rest is in great shape inside so I think maybe it was kept indoors in a living space all this time, so I will see first what condition the rubber is in and if a wire is not cracked and does not have to be touched, it will stay. Of course if it is cracked, all over, it will go.
