It features that awesome RACETRACK dial! The radio power on when plugged in and turned on and it plays nicely! I was able to tune in several stations here in central Indiana. He backlit dial light works as well. He wood cabinet is nice and solid and the finish looks exceptional. There are some minor imperfections like you might expect on a piece from this era. All of the various dials and switches seem to be working as they should be. As you can see from the pictures, the chassis looks clean but the radio has been in storage for many years so I’m sure that it could use a good/thorough cleaning. Please be sure to preview all of the pictures so that you can determine the condition for yourself.

Outside antenna will bring in the best reception. It has it’s original 2 knobs. The cabinet is a little warped. There is a gap between the wood on the left backside. The front of the radio has some paint splatters on the front of it. These traits all just add character though since it was around in every situation, even messy ones! The cord needs a replacement. This is a great radio. It would be a good project. It doesn’t need much work, but it does need a little! It measures about 12″ long, 9″ tall, and 7 wide. This is a great deal for a Zenith radio.
