    Western Electric 500 - Professionally Painted Finish
    The Restoration Process
    Dial
    – The dial is a 9C that has been fully disassembled, cleaned, lubed and timed to ensure years of trouble free service. A brand new plastic finger wheel and dial card have been added
    Cords
    – The phone has been outfitted with new vinyl cords and colour matched line cord that has a modular connection to facilitate a modern connection to your wall jack.
    Shell
    – The shell has been painstakingly put through a multi-step restoration process which includes sanding with 400, 800, 1000, 2000 grit. This ensures that there are no scratches, dents or dings. The shell is then professionally painted in a high gloss bright orange using Polane. This is a very durable and scratch resistant paint that will hold up for years. This is the same process the phone companies used to refurbish their own telephones.
    The phone goes through extensive testing before to ensure it is in perfect working condition prior to shipping.
    Do you currently have any rotary phones? If the answer is no, it is always a good idea to call your local phone company and check if they still support “pulse” dialing. If they do, you are all set to go. If they do not, your phone will not be able to place calls without a converter. We have an external solution for 44.95.
    We also have an internal converter that is hidden inside the phone that works with all telephone providers. If you would wish to have this option, add the phone and this item to your cart and check out:
