Very rare Zenith 829 cabinet restore
#1

A radio collector seen my work on website and said ,that's the guy who's going to refinish my radio. Low and behold he contacted me I excepted and I am all done with it. I will ship it back as soon as the clear has cured out, here it is cabinet only Icon_clap Icon_crazy That's what I am talking about. If I could get 3 or 4 of theses jobs a week I would be doing pretty good for myself

Fred, as usual a lovely job. I can't believe you could do three in a week! Give me a month on one and it wouldn't look that good.

Fred, I think if you really push you cabinet restore skills on social media as well many radio forums. You might even consider Antique radio classified as another way to get your talent advertised. Maybe a you tube video explaing what you can do .
Just throwing out ideas ,maybe you have already considered these. Good luck
By the way great job on the Z
