Two Recent Acquisitions

I recently acquired a B mount and a D mount. The B mount I purchased from a collector on the TCI listserv. It was in good condition with a converted number 4 dial. The D mount I got for a low BIN price on eBay. It was probably low because it was manual and the shell finish was deteriorated. I mounted a 2HB dial with a 132 number plate on the B mount. I refinished the shell on the D mount and put the converted number 4 dial on it.

Looks like a fine pair of beauties you have there, Chuck!

     Nice job on all the work you did!

     Thanks for sharing, and enjoy them, whether you put them in use, or display them.

     Did you make the number cards! Just curious... they're very nice, regardless of origin.

     Best regards,
Sláinte!
