Bit of this, bit of that
SO in my hunt to acquire suitable casing for a Naim Pre-amp power supply and Phonostage I purchased a 42 the other day.
it was a bit scruffy, yellowed on the dials, dirty on the inside and outside, generally unloved and in need of a real clean and a general spruce up with isopropyl and Servisol.
So now that i've done that, stripped it, cleaned everything, replaced some old caps, bypased a few more, re-soldered a few dry joints and generally bought it back up to date I actually feel kinda guilty at splitting the innards away from the sleeve. Don't get me wrong, it's going to happen, but I almost feel like I've been entrusted with a little bit of audio history and that I'm doing something bad....
So I'd like to salvage some consolation, and cash, from this by offering the various parts out.
SO does anyone need any bits from a 42?

Metal front plate
let me know, with offers otherwise i'll wrap it all up carefully for posterity.
