A very good video, I gave it a thumbs-up. What I liked most: The music was good and has ( most importantly ) a sensible volume level. I have probably seen a gazillion of similar videos, where the creator decided it´s a brilliant idea to make his fav music blare at highest-possible levels out of my speakers. I dunno why content-creators do this, we´re here for the content, not for the background-music :) The mechanism for the tuning dial is genious in it´s simplicity :) What you could improve: Some captions helping beginners in restoration what you use and why. Prime example could be "The clear liquid is IPA, it cleans stuff nicely and evaporates without leaving a trace" or "Kontakt is basically Deoxit. It cleans scratchy potentiometers, for a long-lasting repair you may use some Kontakt/Deoxit lubricating agent afterwards" Don´t get me wrong, I´m not being picky, I just try to make you a better content-creator. You´re already very good ( filming and editing and stuff ), but there is just a tiny bit to make you stellar ;)
Just bought 2 of those radios color black, barely looked used but the volume is scratchy, I cycled the switches with batteries out for several minutes to let the friction kinda self clean the contacts in the pot, it got better on both, will pull apart and clean the pot if it gets bad again. What solution did you dab on the speaker solder joints after solder to clean it up ?
I have the same radio however the turning band comes out as I try to tune in a radio station and the dial for tuning becomes very hard to turn. I opened it up and tried to fix it but still nothing. Sucks.

when in AM you dont need to extend the antenna as it uses the internal ferrite antenna

Thank You SharkkoonBin :)
Inhave this radio but is missing the external antenna and screw. I have located a replacement antenna but unsure about the screw - what to look for?

What the heck was all inside that radio, did they have it strapped to a sheep at sheer time or what 😜

sorry to hear that :(
Sorry for asking: Did you give the whole mechanism a tiny dab of silicone grease? Doesn´t need much...
