[Roadsters] If you ever want your radio restored . . .

[John Stromgren]

Hey, All.

I'm getting my car painted, and decided, what the heck, maybe I'll try to
spruce it up on the inside, too, and fix stuff that's broken, like the
radio.

I found this guy in Liverpool, NY - Dave Froehlich.  He's amazing.  I asked
him what the chances were of him being able to fix my old Toshiba AM radio,
and he e-mailed me back the schematic for it!

Off it goes in a box, along with the speaker and a money order for $65
(plus shipping), and shortly thereafter I get an e-mail with his
assessment.  Then more e-mails, keeping me up-to-date on his progress, and
even a *movie* to demonstrate the sound he's getting out of it!

The whole process was less than two weeks.  I sent him a note with another
twenty bucks to thank him for being such an attentive service man.  I have
never heard this radio in the car, and I'm excited to install it and pull
that antenna up and go back in time, as it seems like AM tends toward
oldies, as well as baseball and weather.  What fun this will be.

You would probably make this guy's day by sending him another Datsun radio
- he appears to live for this stuff.

Looking forward to spring, which might still come,
