Mikes 70 DONE
#13

Good morning collectors,

Today I have secured the bottom to the cabinet. I glued and used the original nails to secure it. Then I clamped her up and now I have to wait another day. I toned the face of the radio and began toning the bottom trim. The trim is new so it is giving me problems with color. It is not gining the right look so I will have to figure something out. I may have to strip it and try sealer first.
