In Reply to: Repair of oil cloth surround on alnico woofer posted by sanman on March 19, 2017 at 12:13:17:

Well it continues to pour rain here in Northern California. I decided to attack the cabinets. I got rid of the nasty grill cloth covered panels on the sides and front and decided to go with an open open baffle look. I will hand paint the sides and front with a satin water-based enamel.
I did a fix on the woofer by removing a section of the gasket, scrubbing the rust off and gluing the edge down, replacing the gasket section. Sounds fine, no rub, If needed, I will replace the entire surround later.
I have ordered two matching peerless tweeters.(oh, and I raplaced one of the banana jacks which was broken off.) The walnut veneer is in good shape.
