Default And then there were two !

Finished the second , one at last ,the chroming was the problem , due to the rust /pitting ,a company in Nottingham finally , sorted it to my satisfaction .
The one on the left was a real mess ,very rusty chassis and case , the chassis was striped of all components , cleaned all the rust off ,primed and top coated, the speakers had been eaten away by mice ,just the cones that is , that rendered the speakers speechless ,as were the mice there were three of them complete skeletons ,not sure if they were blind before there demise !
Anyway on re assembly the radio worked first time , having replaced all the usual capacitors . Mick.
