In this video:

A customer desired her vintage countertop radio to be restored. She also wanted an auxiliary audio input so the radio could be used as an audio amplifier for an external device. This radio needed a bit of TLC concerning the chassis. However, the radio itself was in really good condition with few minor issues and typical component replacements.
