I was saving those screws for special occasion I guess this was it .

I love helping. I only had four of the six screws needed but still that's help lol.

A story I'm part of! Looks great Chris!!!

All that white paint that was all over it, I actually got probably 70% of it off before you got it. It was MUCH worse. Most of it actually came off in the bath I gave it.

Was it really missing 6 case screws?!?!? I remember I didn't have them all but 6!!! I'm surprised it made it to you safely. Haha.

I'll be honest, after seeing my oldest loving that box, a small part of me wanted to keep it. But I got it full and well knowing I would be getting it to a member for what I paid, not flipping it. Wifey didn't want me to get it, but I had to save it when I saw it for sale.

This was before cleaned it for you Chris. Look at those grilled. Haha. My oldest Natalie.

Man, this whole thing started with you!

The reality of it is, that 70% you did in cleaning the paint, PLUS all the work on the speaker grills is what made this job come out so well. Strange how much the speaker grills come into play. Dent free, properly painted grills are like a nice set of wheels on a trashy car. They can make the whole thing better.

One thing for sure, this thing saw ALLOT of time on a construction site. There is still paint on it! Every time the light hits it from a new angle...BOOM...PAINT!

From Seattle, Washington....to the streets on Rome, Italy this past weekend!
