Re: Philco Ford battery op record player (skunked again on eBay!)
At least you know now that it does power up. Did it make any kind of static noise like it wanted to work in the radio?

Re: Finally Retired
Being a tall person having abused my back most of my life, and being stubborn, need to do things myself without asking for help, my back has been screwed up for years.

Re: 1940 Rca Victor radio at the antique store...

Glad you had a good time, 102 is a bit much but it is AZ. Looking forward to the photos, that was always one of my favorite shows.

Thanks for sharing. Love the Metro and will show Bob the photo. And is that an A/C condenser sitting on top of a Corvair engine?
