Truetone 724 cabinet makeover
#13

Almost finished, I am waiting on dial cover though, I put in new antenna coil and replaced electrolytics also replaced speaker wires along with the speaker push pull transformer. Got it playing pretty good and put it in cabinet now nothing , well time to pull it out and poke around some to find the problem. Overall this truetone turned out pretty nice. Had to make a grill cloth backing board which was nothing to speak of, im wondering if I should get a repo dial scale cause this one is seen better days?
