Well, we finally got some decent low humidity weather, so I was able to spray the final lacquer clear-coats on several radios in the last two days. Here are some pics of the 650B I have been working on.

Now I need to order that new grill cloth. And, oh yes, I really have to rebuild those darned Philco 'tar baby' capacitors. Yuk! Oh well, its worth it.
