I couldn't stand seeing this guy all covered with rust anymore. Spent a couple of hours on it this afternoon. It's a Motorola HK-45-3, well that's what is says on the side of it anyway. :)

Here's a "before" and "in progress" pic/s:

Good Job!

That's out of a early 60's console, isn't it? BTW, nice job!

Awesome work! Another one saved!

Thanks for the encouragement guys. I got this along with 3 other tubed pieces. This one will need a tech's attention. It's missing a tube, a power switch, and a power cord that can plug into an outlet.

Darned tubes are addicting. :D

Dang, how did you do that? That went from crap to craptastic!

Now you just need the Motorola 3 channel amp that goes with it. These are pretty good tuners once gone through. Nice job on the clean-up!
