not yet man i hate that wait it's the worst part ,i know where the radio is coming from in p.a got hammered with snow so i totally expect it to take forever ,oh well i been slowly restoring my trc 918 so that should keep me busy till it gets here .i'll let you know as soon as it arrives .

the kaboom came about 30 minutes ago , its in better shape than i thought ,only thing besides the cosmetic issues is re belting the deck and get the deck door hinges back in the holes and she should be a great box ,she sounds awesome too .

The factory used a single thicker belt. I used double thinner belts with good results figuring the extra surface area of the belts would make them more reliable. For a newer boombox, I would've thought belts would last longer. Hoping with dual belts, it may go awhile longer between rebelting.

CONGRATS, glad it showed up! Great news it's cleaner then you thought. What a screaming deal you got.
