This vintage Motorola Model 65L11 tube radio is a perfect item for collectors and restoration enthusiasts. Its unique suitcase design adds to its appeal and historical value. The front cover appears as operational with it clicking in place and staying upright when opened. The knobs look good and so does the back cover.


Made in the United States, this radio is untested due to poor power cord condition and is being sold for restoration purposes only.


The radio may have some cosmetic flaws, but the potential for light restoration is high. Its brand, Motorola, is well-known for producing high-quality radios from the 1930s to the 1940s. This item is a great addition to any collection or can be a challenging restoration project.
