This is a 1951 Zenith 7H02Z table radio I restored for a friend. It was cosmetically a bit rough, and had numerous electrical issues: intermittent I.F. transformer, bad electrolytics, several out of tolerance resistors, dirty tube pins, 1 bad tube, bad chassis grounds, etc. Once that was all resolved, it was brought up on a variac, a full alignment, and was playing nicely.
Cleaning all the nicotine from the cabinet was a task, but that and polishing turned out great. I had to paint the speaker grill and polish the Zenith badge. Overall, this restoration was a success. Here's some pics and a few videos...
