At least this one looks reversible but another case of sacrilege.

Any ideas what make and model it may have been, prior to the abuse.
I just seen it on gumtree for $10.00, I could divert around on the way home from work one afternoon and grab it.

Cheers
Peter.

I think its a Stromberg Carlson but I could be wrong.

I had a good look.
It looks like an Airzone.
Sending Brad a picture, not sure if it's the same model.

Airzone Console Radio

It is certainly the same cabinet. I was thinking it was closer to Airzone's earlier models with the larger, almost one foot square tuning dials though but it is a later model.

Will pick it up next week after work and add it to my growing collection of cabinets, maybe I might have a chassis that may fit, I had a thought of a small vintage TV chassis, that is a large square hole to fill, just thinking.

He also has an Astor mantle on Gumtree, so will more than likely grab it as well.
