Default Re: What is a Success Story?

If you consider these radios as 'works of art' as some definately are - the following analogy might work.

If a painting by a 'Master' was found in an attic, torn and filthy, it would be resorted. Many man-hours work would be put in - cleaning the existing paint finish - invisibly repairing the canvas etc. Simply, it would be made fit to display.
Nobody would expect this not to happen - as we would want to see what the artist 'had' produced - not how it had become, neglected and damaged.

Back to radios - most people expect them to work and look like they used to. Agreed, some people might make some radios gleam a little too brightly - but the intention is still good!
