Hi Folks,
this is a short Story about my very first Mono BOOMbox.
It's about 26 Years ago, my Friend leave it to me.
My very first own Radiorecorder !!!!!
I was 7-8 years old....
But this original Box is lost........."Lost in Time"
3 years ago, i start to find my first box again
on fleamarkets and on xbay.... it took over 2 Years to find it.
And i was lucky !....GOT IT !
(well, almost... same Case, different manufacturer)
Electronic/Mechanic was not really usable but optical in good Condidion.
So, i started to join this nice Forum.
Thanks to ViennaSound, he found parts for it
on Fleamarkets.
Even a very similar Model in good Condition.
Then he send me a packet....SURPRISE, SURPRISE !!!
GEIL ! 
one Radio for parts and the other
(similar) Model in excellent Condition.
So i started to refurbish the Radio.
(Thanks to my wife for the support)
Cleanig some parts, using some cleaner and a toothbrush
changing mechanical parts und brazing.....
After 4 Glasses of Beer and a little help from my friend
the work was done !
My Parents are in Digital Print Business and
print new Stickers for me
Now i am so happy.
and because of the new Stickers, the "Illusion" is perfect
Special Thanks to Vienna Sound !!! you are my Hero
Cheers

very good to hear you have finally got your long lost box just the way you want it, also very kind of VS to send it to you also, congrats im very happy for you

Yeah, great to see it in that wonderful condition.
When 2 personal grails come together:
There is nothing against the first boombox.
Wish you had also found your really first one, like i got.
