iPodding a classic table radio

Here's a link to a flickr set full of pictures documenting the transformation of a vintage 1947 National Union G-619 table radio found at a flea market into an iPod amplifier.

Ken pulled out the original tube-based radio chassis and replaced it with a modern transistor amp and speakers. The final result is definitely a head-turner. He get bonus points for keeping the original chassis, just in case a future owner wants to restore the radio to its former tube-based glory. [thanks, Raleigh!]
