Philco 611T Finish
#1

I have a 611T that has been poorly refinished and am wondering what the proper color is. I looked at the pictures on Rons site and the 610 and 611 are very light, are they refinished or is that correct? I would like to do a proper refinish on mine and would like to get the color correct, lets hear your what your thoughts are.
Thanks

The 611T should, I think, look like a 610T. Medium Walnut overall with a heavy coat of Perfect Brown on the bottom trim, or a light coat of Extra Dark Walnut on the bottom trim.

You can probably save it using coils on the wire leads. Try unwinding a tad off each end of the rf coil.RodB — 09:47 PM
