I now have the cabinet inside and the padding I put around it removed, and in good light it doesn't look nearly as bad as it did in the poor light in the storage space where it was when I bought it. Should clean up fairly well.

And yes, the serial number inside the cabinet is the same as the one on the bedplate. When I figure out how to make the macro feature on my camera to work, I'll see if I can get shots of those.

"For now I am laying in wait for some poor unsuspecting neighbor with a strong back who will help me get the cabinet out of the car and into the building. I’ll put up some “before” pics of it when I get it in."

I'm guilty of the above! Isn't everyone on the Forum? Jerry B.

Well from the first picture it looks pretty good, except for grill being upside down. :lol: Seriously, hopefully it will clean up nicely with a little TLC. Looks like you have a good find there!

:lol: You are right. It is upside down. I hadn't noticed that yet. I will be taking the horn mechanism out to clean everything and will address that then.
