Once again, the Philco Gods have smiled down upon me.  This time from a local Antique Mall. Model 118 in great shape with original grill cloth. Stole it for only $36.00 !!!

Wow. $36! That is the deal of the century indeed!
Congrats!

Great snag! I wouldn't be able to get the money out of my wallet fast enough! Looking forward to your restoration thread and your progress. Now, go buy a lottery ticket! Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary
