Default Re: F. Stephen Masek's HMV468 restoration

The cabinet is coming along nicely. This is with the first coats of clear lacquer, the new top decal (from a maker in Peru!) and dark brown toned lacquer on the base trim (Mohawk M104-2060 Dark Sapele Brown). I will wet sand it, then spray the final coats of clear gloss Mohawk lacquer.

I wonder who owned this radio before me? It seems likely that they listened to all of the events of WWII on it. and who know what else before it somehow got to San Diego.
