Guest Trevski Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 (edited) Looking for a 50's/60's radiogram. Got to be a good looker, more a matter of style over substance, as I want to gut it and fit a technics deck etc in it! Found a really good one, the kind with the speakers built into each end, drop down lid over the deck area, and enough room to fit what I wanted, but....... its 3" too long! Cant be more than 3' 6" max. Anyone know where I could find one? One like this Blaupunkt would be nice! Edited May 22, 2010 by Trevski Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I've got a beautiful one in my garage, it would be a bit hard to explain what it looks like (it's cream and maroon with a polished wooden top) has sliding doors that open from the middle, valve radio obviously and record deck, I think it still has the circular piece of paper giving instructions on the turntable. I bought it in about 1992 (was a lot of money back then even) but have never had room for it anywhere. I've never seen another one like it. Maybe not what you're looking for but I'll send you some photos if you want to have a look. I think it's one of the first stereo ones. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Pete S Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 I managed to get some photos but they were taken in the garage so they are not great, the whole unit is in need of a clean. It has 4 legs which screw in, I took these off when we moved. Like I say, probably not what you're after. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
