[Jukebox-list] RE: Wurlitzer 750-E

[david wendell]

Kyle,

That may be the way to go.  I like the ceramic fuse
block.  Perhaps I could make a sub-base, for the fuse
block or blocks and mount it on the terminal box
exterior using the holes that would be available by
getting rid of the old circuit breakers.  I am kinda
liking that idea.  I have new cloth covered wire so it
would look OK.  Thank You Everyone!
