Willie doesn't refinish his radios, he sells them "as found." He lives in the heart of radio country and goes to all the major meets and auctions where consoles often sell very reasonably.

He has also gained a stellar reputation by being one of the only sellers to ship consoles packed well and at a reasonable cost.
