Vintage radios

Thats nice Rusty..i like it very much.

I would think about having the Electrical cord replaced just for peace of mind.:thumb:
 
yeah, we'll see hwo it looks. i have other cords that need replaced that will be higher in priority. like my strohs sign with the wires showing through the cord...
 
I must admit i do like the Vintage with a wooden case...the plastic ones look tacky.
 
if you look at it in the right way you could remove a few LP dividers and get a small fridge in there:yum::yum::yum::clap:

Nice bit of kit.

Way back i done some work for BAE over here and the amount radio equipment binned was unreal....i could have taken home all i wanted but being young i never see the future fascination....i was young and foolish for sure.
 
got pics!!! brought her home today, and i must say. works beautifully. phases in and out a bit on some FM statons, but on AM i could listen to the ball game PERFECT! im very happy for 10$. he said that his research told him that the radio was made from 1950-55. ill do some of my own research tomorrow, but for now heres the pics. the last picture is from after i cleaned the cabinet. and the 2nd to last picture shows that the ring has become separated from the back panel, tho im not sure how to repair it without dislodging some wires, but seeing as it doesnt seem to affect the operation of the radio itself, i may not worry about it.

GOT ANOTHER! interestingly enough from the same era. the previous radio i got is a Zenith M-730. the one i just got (for free for helping a friend out) is a Zenith C-730. works real nice, and even has tone control (the M doesnt) but it seems to cut in and out on occasion. going to hafta do some investigating on it. but ill get pics up soon.
