I spoke to Alan Today about a vintage car radio repair.
He told me they don't work on car radios but he kindly
referred me to someone that does. Thanks Al
I felt I had to write a good review and defend Great Northern.
Sure, it's an older place, with fun, quirky older people (and cats) hanging about..it's the real deal. I thought the owner was very kind, chatty and happy to see others interested in the hobby. I mentioned I was looking for a Philco Predicta television, and he led me to his storage area, and sold me one for $45 ...far beneath the market price. I see other reviews saying he charged more for an unfinished radio than a finished one, but guess what..unfinished (unmolested) radios can be worth more to collectors than glossy refinished ones... he is straight up in his pricing, and he is right..you can spend quite a bit of money restoring a radio.. it's a lot of specialized work that few people can do now.. I am a mid- level collector and hope he is around for years to come.
