So it took me almost a year to get this baby to PA. My mom will likely never volunteer to pick anything up for me again but here are a few pictures of my cabinet progress.

That is a beautiful machine. Congratulations! Well worth the wait I think - especially for the price you paid :lol:

Exactly: well worth the wait. If there's anything we learn in this hobby, it must be patience! :)

Congratulations!

That looks great! I'm going cruising to see what's been left along the curb!

Thank you all. I am very pleased with it. The left side is quite dry so I am working on that and by the sounds of it my spring is broken but all and all it will be a great machine. Now to start collecting the record boxes!

Coming along splendidly. It is things like this that keep us on the hunt.
