    1939 zenith racetrack model 5-s-319.

    So I decided to build a radio for my office and wanted something different. I got my insperation from the 1939 zenith racetrack model 5-s-319.


    This is what the real one looks like:





    I'm currently still busy drawing my version but this is what it looks like thus far:





    Will keep the thread updated as I make progress .....

    that's a hell of a paint job.

    Not a fan of 'vintage' stuff but that's a really good reproduction :-)

    I know the original had buttons on the bronze faceplate, but I was wondering how much you would charge to make a faceplate, the needle with the numbers, but I would want the buttons on the face plate and without the knob holes, but I would like the knobs. here's a picture of what I am after

    Do you have an etsy.com account? I would be interested in the 3D printed radio, also did you 3D print the knobs, needle, and thing with the numbers that the needle points to? If so I am interested in those too. But the faceplate I wouldn't want the holes for the knobs, but I would want the holes that were for the buttons like the original radio had. And 3D printed buttons for the holes
