My very first FrankenPhilco
#4

I worked my bottom off rubbing on that chassis with sandpaper and a wire brush. Removed all surface mounted components then rubbed and rubbed. Once rust cleaned and neutralized I coated it with a gray spray paint I pick up from big box mart. Cleaned and/or painted all surface mounted components, reinstalled same and there it is. Nothing special just allot of rubbing. That escutcheon came from the cabinet as shown in the pictures. Now, do I get the knobs and call it a 21 or what? Icon_lol Icon_lol
