Hi everyone,
I got around to pulling the chassis from my 39-55 and thought I would post some pics. Apart from a lot of dust the chassis is in excellent conditionIcon_clap! Rubber grommets and bushings are still flexible and most of the original rubber coated wires are still in remarkably good shape (as compared to my 40-150)!
The only non original parts I can see are two Aerovox electrolytic caps, all other components seem to be the originals. Also all but two of the tubes are Philco brand. the 80 rectifier is a RCA tube and one other is a Sylvania.
