Philco 20 Restoration Chronicles

There is a spcecial place in my heart for 20s.
Don't know why....maybe because a 20 was the first radio I restored.

Now that scares me, Icon_lol

Besides the grill work and the molding, this is the one that will be most original. I have matched most of the issues and fixed the veneer but some old repairs could not be fixed perfectly due to major gluing. Of course this is the one that is most special to you..... I will try my best Mike and if it is not up to standards I will buy an airbrush kit and redo the entire cabinet. UMMM After I learn to airbrush. Icon_mrgreen

At least they will be done for K'town (unless I get the surgery) so you better have room in that truck. I need all the space in my car for new stuff Icon_thumbup
