restored junior beacon ray

[kohan25]

As a collector of rotabeams, i wanted to eventually get a junior beacon ray so i found one recently at a good price. Here it is after restoration. What a well built light and a glass dome. I cleaned it all up, replaced some hardware and got a restoration trim ring kit and it looks like brand new. Waiting for new bulb.

i dont but the trim ring was shot and painted over. all parts needed a good cleaning and some parts i took to work and and buffed out any pitting and imperfections. glass dome was in perfect shape.
