Sorry, fellas, but I agree with Nick, nothing looks worse than an "out-of-period." deck in a radiogram. I can't see the point in "restoring" a piece of vintage material if you are going to take the easy way out, and replace something original, however temperemental, with something else completely out of character. I await the flak!!
