Picked this up from a friend for what he paid for it($23.00) and decided to do a restore. replaced the fan and cleaned the whole inside and WAXED it! The outside was bad looked like it was left in the garage. Took MY Heritage II and with a handy butler buffed and removed all the rust and grime then waxed and polished it . Gave to my other friend for what I paid for it, for his mom. I am including Photos Enjoy!! Jim
PS I also restored the Heritage II as well and my Classic as well. | ||

What did you use to polish it? Mother's, Flitz? Autosol? | ||

Looks sweet! Great work! I also have a G4 that I fixed up, was in a similar state when I got it but looks gorgeous now. Always amazed at how these can be brought back to life. Bravo, sir!
