Yes you hit the nail on the head it's a X chassis. You can tell by the 4 pin tube sockets (you got too many of them). And the power transformer is bigger. The X uses 4pin output tubes (6B4's).
Devil in the details...

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

Thanks for the assist. At least I now know what kind of cabinet and speaker I need to start looking for.

I'm not sure but I've not seen one with that switch by the shadow meter. I have both the X and B models. That chassis might be from a PX that's a 116X w/phono in the top. Pretty low production numbers. Jeff W out in California has one.

That switch looks like something added by a repairman or "restorer" years after the set was built.

The chassis had paperwork for the switch install, so I agree with Ron I think it was an add on by someone later down the road.
