[Boatanchors] PANEL REFINISHING update

[Dee C. Almquist]

Hi Gang
First off I want to thank all who responded to my inquiry about GK500, =
etc.=20
Globe King 500.
Unfortunatly, there doesn't seem to be enuf investment interest in =
refinishing this series of radios. The last thought on pricing for a =
set, btw, was $600. for the "B" & "C:" models. And that if I get more =
than one radio to do. The 1st run would be done @ a loss most likely. So =
I will leave the GK500 screening policy the same as I did for the =
Johnson 500. Come up with 3 or 4 complete panel jobs & I will invest in =
art work & screens. You fellows know who owns GKs.=20

Yes I now do the Johnson 500. And they are NICE1
The price for complete job is $450.

The R390(A) radio.
I am now doing these radio panels @ $125. front side. I can also do the =
back if you kike for $225 both sides (twice the work).

Johnson Vik-II
I have asked this question before. Is there any interest in refinishing =
this radio @ $350. complete? Thats the same price as a Valiant, btw.
I would have to come up with artwork & screens. I own one of these so I =
can easily do that. And because of that I would be willing to "roll into =
production" starting with two jobs. Still I NEED TO KNOW HOW MANY ARE =
INTERESTED IN SPENDING THAT KIND OF MONEY on Vik-IIs. Its a heck of a =
transmitter, the only one that I know of that was designed & build Mil =
Spec by Johnson in that era.

And I would be willing to do some partial swapping for Johnson panels, =
bezels, & cabs, mostly J500s & Rangers. Btw, the Ranger II is the same =
layout as the Ranger 1. For those of you that have not visited my web =
page, please do so. I have a brand new screen printing press that I =
would like to use more, hi.
Warm regards
