If this would be your first radio restoration, I would advise you not even starting this just yet. The only way this might work out is if you have someone physically there to check on your progress, and advise you of how to proceed. This is a complicated radio, and it wouldn't take much to ruin it. You now have a working, restorable radio. Try to rebuild a simpler radio first to get a feel for what you are doing. I have rebuilt several Philco 116 radios, and even for someone who has experience at this, it is a very big job.
