And Even More...

This is the old Philco 49-1609 radio we picked up for $10.00 in Larimore from the antiques lady. It is in good condition. I sanded the case all down and have restained it. I stained the lighter colored parts too, but do plan on going darker with them because it has too much red in it from the mahogany. I have the rest of the staining and varnishing to do on it and then I will replace the speaker grill cloth, cut some pieces for the back of the cubbys on the bottom. I am going to replace the 3 way input selector swith with a 5 way switch. (now it has phono, standard broadcast or AM and FM). The other 2 selections for it will be for an iPod and one for a satellite radio which will be great for those who want to experience the warmth of music being piped through the tubes combined with the clarity of the satellite radio or iPod. Will post more pics of it when I get it done.
