Need some assistance - Dolfnz67 - 01-27-2018
I just purchased a Philco Ford radio and record player sold in a nice cabinet. Unfortunately the record player doesn’t work. I think it’s due to the motor no longer working and would like to get it fixed.
I would like to know the make model and year and would like to know if you recommended a place where it can be refurbished.
Please see the attached “unit Identification” sticker

Welcome to the Phorum!
Ford bought Philco in 1961 so its no older than that.
RE: Need some assistance - Dolfnz67 - 01-29-2018
Wondering if anyone has any information based on the numbers I posted.
RE: Need some assistance - klondike98 - 01-29-2018
Unfortunately the "newer" units like yours have less info availble. Much of the data is for pre- WW2 an the following decade.

Thanks Bob. All I know so far that it was made after 1966. I’ll try to get some pictures up to see if that helps.
