A Marconi model 86
#21

Hi Paul;
 The grill pillars were quite easy to take out .They only had a rear nail in the top rear of each one.
          It is a lot easier to strip them when they are out.
The stripping on this radio was not as hard as some others I have done.
     I have seen photos of this model with the grill bars missing, and I wonder how that would happen,but some people don't care.
 I am glad I can get this one back to it's original look.
