Hi

Well that is a real military cabinet that it's sitting in. The cabinet 
is unusual enough that they usually go for a pretty high price. The 
black paint job is in very good shape on both the radio and the 
cabinet. It's certainly the nicest R-390A on the bay at the moment.

$3750 seems a bit steep, but PT Barnum probably will be proved right if 
he lists it long enough.

One side benefit - if your electrolytic capacitors explode and spread 
the dreaded black stuff all over the place ... you'll never notice it 
with this paint job.

As I recall this paint job was a special run back in 1967 for the Black 
Panthers .. makes it RARE.

	Enjoy!
