Firestone 4-A-85 Clone (maybe Sonora?)

Year: 1950

Initial issues: Cracked and faded case, hums, was bought for parts but was too good to scrap.

Repairs: Glued and stabilized case, replaced Electrolytic and all Paper/Wax Capacitors, replaced bad/weak tubes, cleaned grille cloth, polished extremely faded bakelite case with shoe polish, and did a full alignment

Before: Firestone Before     After: Firestone After
