Just picked up a 1936 Philco 116B Tombstone Radio Today and need some info on it

Quote:Hi Captain, there are various types of easy out tools for removing stripped hex head bolts. You can do a google search or visit a hardware store and see what they got that could work!

I was thinking of those as well, but I ended up getting the bolt out by just drilling the head out. 

The hex nut screw they used is a common enough size that I can just pick up some new ones at the hardware store.
and I think I figured out the grommet question I had earlier, I had some motor mount grommets that I had picked up from Lowe's when I was restoring an old Signal Box Fan from 1955 that had some similarly sized grommets to what this radio used for its tuning capacitor mounts, so I'll just use one of those to get more of the grommets that I need for this radio, besides new screws.
