Awesome restoration, Bob! Looking at projects like this is really an inspiration... Makes me want to try harder to find an old beat up cabinet ;)

Thanks! I recently picked up a spare Philco 60 chassis to scavenge a few parts from and finally finish this set off.

Bob,
It was a real education for me watching you work through the problems. The end result looks wonderful! It's information like this that made me pick up some orphan radios this past weekend. It will be awhile before my skills and confidence will grow enough to attempt such a restoration, but I can see what's possible. Amazing work!

Looking back through these photos led me to realize I forgot to apply a new Philco decal to the cabinet
I wish I had remembered sooner so I could have buried it in the lacquer. I guess I'll apply one or two light coats over the decal once it's set up.
