This old floor radio was in very bad shape when we brought it home from an auction.

It's another good example of what some paint can do!

I put some gray primer on it, then a coat of black paint.

I sanded some of the black back off, which let the gray peek through.

The fabric at the bottom was beyond saving, so I pulled it all off, then replaced it with a black & white check.

Does the radio work? I have no idea. There are still tubes etc. in the back.
