I can buy them for a lot less money and that goes for the cabinet to. I enjoy repairing, and restoreing these radios, its no challenge for me if there not all jacked up.. But I do have my limatations .

What kind of paint are you using to paint the Zenith chassis?

I first use automotive self etching primer/sealer and then believe it or not Krylon hammered copper color for top coat.

Thanks Fred,

It sure looks like a real thing, not hammered paint, which is good.
