Fred,
Excellent work, encourages me to restore my 16B tombstone that is painted an ugly barn red before I obtained it for $25. How did you redo the photofinish- did you replace it with veneer? Have a couple of holes in the side of mine where someone bolted the speaker after they removed it from the front? The cabinet wood on mine is in good condition.
Also, my chassis is in very good condition and not rusted. Best, John
