Philco Car Radio Cosmetic Resto
#16

Now we are at the end and time to move onto another project. But first let's take a look at our finished radio to see how it came out. A cosmetic facelift on a radio such as this usually takes about a couple of hours and requires just some elbow grease along with some simple techniques and common supplies. I hope this thread will be useful to some. I enjoyed doing this and appreciate your time.
