you did an awesome job cleaning that thing man! :w00t:

Thanks BMoney, I have been listening to it all week. It just blows peoples minds, it's so clean and fresh looking now. My next goal is to get into repainting and "Body work" I see what Hemiguy is doing and think to myself "I can do that". So that's my next goal.

Yeah, baby! :hooray:

Nice restore on this 'box.

I have also seen this GPX box in the past, and it was branded as a Helix...........

WOW, I'd like to see some pictures of that one. Helix made allot of boxes that resembled other boxes. Were they a major player back in the day or just a "Knock Off" company?

Great restore job! Makes me feel lazy! I gotta get me a project... :thumbsup:

Thanks man, I'm just trying to keep up on this stuff. If I let them sit, I know I will never get around to it. Plus when I get them working, then they are out of the house and on the street with me!

I'm all about recharging those batteries and hitting the pavement! In today's "iPud" world allot of people have large music collections, but I still have a MASSIVE tape collection of rare demo tapes from well known bands that NO ONE has MP3 copies of. So when I go over to a friends house with my Blasters, I'm usually welcomed in with my box of cassettes to blow their mind with Ozzy's demo, or Ratt's demo or Motley Crue's demo. Yet another excuse to bring the Blaster!

Well, it took about 5 hours, straight through. No real special tools, but it does help to have an air compressor to blow out all the water and it gets some of the grunge out of the crevices. I'm looking forward to doing more of these!
