GE 3-5259A Blockbuster Parts Box Now Has A Door

[BoxBeats]

I just retro-fitted a donor cassette door from a GE 3-5455B boombox on to my GE 3-5259A Blockbuster. I know it’s a parts/restoration box but I wanted to make a door for it since there are no replacement doors anywhere.

I sculpted out the 3-5455B door of extra plastic and it is temporarily fitted with velcro until i can find suitable hardware hooks but it is fully functional.

The meters are temporarily out as are the tape player buttons. I put some SCR 8 knobs on the missing knob spots.

Work in progress…

Fast forward this post where I 3D printed a replacement door: https://boomboxery.com/forum/threads/meet-the-leia-project-last-hope-blockbuster.32115/post-392087

Here is a peek at the finished project.
