Old Zenith Console Restored

[steve gibson]

Just finished restoring this Zenith 10-S-669. Both BC and SW bands working very well. The restoration of the automatic tuner was the biggest challenge. Hair like wires and small carbon tuners. This Wave Magnet antenna really brings in the stations. One down and three more consoles to go. My wife keeps finding them. Her latest was a fully complete Silvertone that she rescued from a dumpster at a moving sale. That along with a 10 dollar Radiola 42 which is waitng for the varnish to dry so I can place the chassis and a complete Model 52 Zenith "lowboy" for 25 bucks! She has never really gotten into vintage stereo but has a passion for these old radios. The only problem is they take up way more space than a receiver.
