Hi Jeff - I'm a big fan of the 45C too. Of course there are plenty of other Philco models that are better radios electronically - but this one has such an iconic design.

Anyway, I thought you might find this 'before' photo useful for comparison. It's from a 45C I restored a while ago:

Sorry it's not oriented the same as your photo.
