I plugged it in and the clock definitely works. It has a busted speaker so I could not tell if the alarm clock or the radio works. The case is solid, it has a crack on the bottom of the case-looks like someone over tightened the screw, minor scuffing that should buff out easily if you decide to restore it. Everything is there except it is missing 2 knobs for the clock. Overall a pretty nice radio to restore or just use as decor.
