VOX wah : still alive and well

[Tirol29]

hello,
retrieved that old ('72-'73) Vox wah.
a pro guitarist gave it to me when i was 16-17 told me : "fix it if not keep it"
after few tests and mesure thought that red piece was OOS, didn't know what it was (the fasel) thought it was custom made and unavailable, then stay besides all these years until this week.
it was in my parent's attic  :
here it is dirty and rusty :

even 2 feet are missing...

inside the beast :


then time to some surgery:
completely dissasembled and cleaned:


here i thought either air-pressure sanding or painting, but as retired i concluded that giving extra work to myself was not necessary 

here the end :



some adjustement  on the pot => crying well
total for a 70's machine : one 3PDT, 4 feet , less than 13€.... nice deal
