Most will know that Ekco AC86 radios are considered a classic, and really, only competent and concientious restorers should lay hands on them. Here are a few pics of an AC86, with the handiwork of a so-called 'professional restorer' on display, who someone had paid good money to in good faith to 'restore' the radio to working condition. It later came into the hands of a collector when the true horrors were revealled, and he set about putting it right. It's as good an example as any to illustrate why most of us prefer only to buy radios which haven't gone through the hands of 'Bodgertronics & Co'. Such people should be doing time - not doing up vintage radios!
Warning: You might need to view the pics from behind the sofa as they're very scary!
