A couple weeks ago I received, in the mail, a 1978 Orange FeTAp 611. It actually came from the Netherlands through Etsy. I did already restore it, but would like to show the before pictures. The cords, especially the line cord, looked like a rat's nest and took forever to clean since it was extremely long. This phone was made by Hagenuk in the city of Kiel in Northern Germany. Almost all of the parts are from '78 while others are from '77 such as the rotary dial, which is branded Hagenuk as well. The phone itself was pretty dirty as well.

I also have a video of it here: http://tinyurl.com/m7drfzx

Harry, these pictures are before I cleaned it up. I will post them tomorrow. I guarantee it will look just as if it came out of the factory!
