Well there you got a couple of responses. Hope you have luck with your ol'
rig.
I just tossed out my 2 cents worth to get the string going. I was kinda
curious
what others thought too. I don't have any toob rigs but them 807's just
ain't
what they used to be what with the light versions and all. Cheers Gary

Pete,
The picture was worth 1000 words. If you're going to keep this for your
own collection and re-sale is not an issue (at least at this point), I'd
say go to your local automotive paint emporium and have a small batch of
paint made up. RCarefully refinishing that small area is not at all like
trying to do the whole panel. Any reasonable collector (myself included)
would appreciate and necessary repair like you'd be doing. Unlike pieces
of vintage art, etc. vintage electronics aren't value-destroyed by
well-made repairs. That's why I'd say do just the small area that's
necesssary. Regarding remarking, if you can match the size and font...
have at it! Although nice to use, standard DATAK dry transfers are all
too obvious. Sometimes a complete refinish is indicated, e.g.: a rusted
out Halli. R-48. I had some decals made up for several of those speakers
and did a complete strip, pickle, and repaint. Yeah, they're acceptable
but I know the truth... so to speak, but they're far better than they
were. Regards and good fortune with the project. de Jeep/K3HVG
