After over 15 years of searching and restoring 50 Clairtone 7980 boombox radios i finally found my Holy Grail! It was in pristine condition when it arrived but of course the belts were over 30 years old and needed to be changed and the switches deoxited. So i spent the last 4 days working on detailing it and installing all new belts and it is a BEAUTY! Definately as close as i could ever get to MINT and i'm extremely happy to say the least! Even the original box is dead MINT and as crisp as the day it was made! The older gentleman who owned kept everything like when it was new in the store and the MEGA RARE ORIGINAL CARDBOARD DISPLAY BANNER which is unheard of because most stores kept the promo banner and put it on another Clairtone as they sold them off. The cardboard box he had very carefully removed the large staples and did not rip it open like most people do! I have the original styrofoams,owners manual with shematics and even the original plastic and demo cassette tape.
