Philco Tropic 42-788
#10

Kirk

Seriously?!?

Wow...thanks ! Yes, to be honest, I think I would rather do the toning/finishing myself. Even though I think you would do a better job at it than I would, just repairing the veneer issues would be a big help.

I'll have to have some custom decals made for this cabinet. I'm not going to use the currently available decals for this one as they are not to my liking. Yah, I'm being picky.
