I picked these up for spare parts for a restoration project but never needed
them. They are original, almost complete and in reasonable shape
considering they were apparently used as a mobile station. The deficiencies
are:
MT-1 - someone tried to paint the top plate of the chassis - this will
require some work to clean up
- missing 1 tube cover
- dial drum cracked on one side but intact
- band switch is stiff
MR-1 - mild corrosion on top plate of chassis
- BFO shaft broken and knob missing - requires a 0.25" Lucite
rod
- dial drum slightly cracked on one side
cabinet bolts missing.
These are bare radios, no PS, no manuals and no power cables (just 1 Jones
plug included). They would be an excellent base for a restoration project.
Asking $50US or $55CDN plus shipping via Canada Post/USPS from Toronto area.
Payment by PayPal or postal money order. Contact me for an estimate for your
state or province.
