That looks like a lot of meticulous painting on your daughters Crosley; you gave that radio an entirely new and unique look and I'm sure she is very proud of it.

The Silvertone looks good; I really like the knobs, the grille decoration, and the antenna.  I also liked the lacquer and wax job shown through the dial glass window... very artistic!  Thanks for all the work you do to make your videos so entertaining and I'm looking forward to the next restoration.
