Just finished this Marconi Friday. Im not happy with the decal i made but working on better color and will melt new decal over the existing decal. The decal I made was to transparent . I guess I will have to adjust the saturation on the printer. Other than that she turned out beautiful and plays nicely. I really was grateful that I was able I get this radio for the price of 230$. I know that I can double my investment  and restoration cost if I had to sell it. These Radios are hard to come and very collectable . I am planning on hanging on to it for awhile so I can enjoy it.
