We have no idea when this radio was last used. It was found in storage and is dirty and dusty, as you can hopefully see in the photos. I’m certainly not a Collins guru, but it does appear to be electronically correct and modified (please correct me if I’m wrong). You may not be able to see in the photos, but all standard crystals under the chassis are present. The cabinet, while very straight and free of dents, does appear to have been repainted at some point. All in all, this looks like a great piece for restoration. Also, the serial number tag has fallen off. We hope it finds it way to a good home that’ll give it whatever attention it may need! This unit is believed to have not been used in many years, likely decades, and with this in mind we have made no attempt to power-on this unit or test in any way. Unless you are qualified and capable of working on this unit yourself, or are willing to pay a qualified individual to do the work for you, we suggest you revisit the idea of whether this is the right equipment for you.
