Zenith Transoceanic G500

ChI recently acquired a fairly complete transoceanic which is badged on the schematic pages G500.

I will need to get one of the hinges as it is missing.  Luckily the handle was rattling around inside, so just need another hinge and probably a screw or nut.

Just a reminder to all, for those just joining recently, I acquired Quality Dial Belts several months back and am the current supplier of radio dial belts. I chose not to pay for a website at this time, so all orders are placed through this page or via email @ jjvintageradios@gmail.com. A couple finished up tonight and will head out tomorrow! ~Jeremy
