Factory installed? Philco 89 Chassis in a Philco 35 Cabinet
#2

Hi

Model 35 is a battery-operated version of Model 70, identical to the 70 except for the exposed Model 20-style speaker screws and rosettes.

I think you are thinking of Model 32, which uses a chassis that is very similar to the 89 chassis save for the external 32 volt DC power supply that mounts on a shelf above the main chassis in the cathedral and tombstone models.

That is neat - first Steve Davis and his previously unknown 89H, then Todd and his Model 51 in a 470/490 cabinet, now this. Guess this is the year for unusual finds. Some folks have all the luck. Hmph. Icon_wink Icon_lol I can't complain, though; last year I brought home a Philco 52 grandfather clock cabinet - only the second Philco GFC I've ever seen made to use a 52 chassis.

Can you share some photos, please?
