I waited a long time to find my first one of these. I finally got one a couple of months ago. Whilst trying to find some information about the box on the web, by chance I stumbled across a Spanish classified ad for another one for sale. The pictures weren't great but it looked worth saving.
Luckily the seller knew English and I was able to get a great deal done.
He told me the box had been in his family from new and his Uncle had passed it down to him after buying it during his military service.
The box is fully working including deck but needs a service and I suspect some of the switches need stripping and cleaning. Also a couple of nasty cracks on the tuner and cassette glass and a missing toggle switch. A real unicorn of a box an very unusual to find one tucked away in Europe.
Some pictures of before and after a little clean up.

Well done man. There's not a lot inside when you crack it open huh.

And a pretty crude tape deck too! It's not such a bad thing as I'm not good at repairs. I like boxes where the front comes off rather than the back.

Absolutely superb.

One of my only regrets in collecting was missing one of these on .au eBay quite a few years ago.
It's such an impressive looking radio, I can only imagine the sound!

Would definitely be my carry-around box of choice if I had one.

Well played, His Rudeness!



Rock On.
