Default Here's a restore project for £20

Hi All,

I saw this and thought someone with better cabinet skills might want to tackle it.

It's a working murphy 188 that some idiot painted white, Why on earth one asks, but as someone once told me "If it wasn't for the idiots of the world we wouldn't look so good"

Anyway it's there if you want it £20

It looks more like baby blue to be honest, not that it mitigates the sin.
That receiver has been on offer for a considerable time with no takers.
