Here's my Realistic SCR-2 Model 14-805 Boombox portable radio. It was sold at Radio Shack between years 1980-1983 as per catalog. I found it at an estate sale for $5.00. It was very dirty but cleaned up well. The cassette deck works but will need new belts of course. Not a bad radio sounds real nice and picks up stations well.

Good old "Radio Shack" (Often called Tandy in the over here.) They no longer exist in the U.K. so a bit of a blast from the past for me! That is certainly a nice looking radio, looks well made and in very good condition! Well worth $5!
