        Its a wooden dark green cab, with the heath script in chrome,
the "grille" is front-panel-light green, with round holes about a half
inch in diameter drilled in it. It's about as tall as the
Apache/Mohawk/Marauder...and about 6" deep.

 A speaker only a boatanchor collector/user could love.
