cherrybsixty, no I sent the pictures in a e-mail to Billy. I can't get my photos to work on this site. I think they are in the wrong format and I don't know how to make it work.I think she will be beautiful when I'm done. I need to take her outside to clean her up really good, but it's been in the 30"s to cold for this old lady to sit outside. the fumes are to much in the house to do in here. I did get it running though. Merry Christmas Mary

My DH found one at a new/second hand furniture place just like this one last week. Wasn't in mint condition with the same cabinet which had some water damage. The price tag was $199.00. I thought it was a little steep for the condition. Was I wrong?

of $$$$$$. Too much for a cabinet with water damage.

I have wanted one for years and now she is here.... She and I are going to have fun together. The younger girls can wait awhile.
