Zenith 5G500
#2

Two tistlocks, 1" type, unobtanium.
Will have to restuff. The tubulars on the right are that type with thin paper wrapped around the cap and then sealed. Pulling the cap leaves thin paper shell with some wax inside. Hard to gut.
Five of them altogether, so far have restuffed just one.

The cord has to go.
Most wires can stay, but some if seriously disturbed, they crack. Not many, so far one had to go and two or three more will due to close proximity to a solder post I had to clean.

The power switch is intermittent and might require to be opened up. This could lead to more wires disturbed.

Been thinking about the leather handle. Has to be yellow.

Oh....the speaker is not a part of the chassis and is mounted to the front, and is connectorized. Weird for a cheap 5-tube radio.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
