I've been offered a 38-690 at a very low price. Don't know too much about condition, but I'm wondering about what repro parts are available for this model. First, I've not been able to locate a reproduction dial for it. I see one at Radiodaze for the 37-690, but the 38-690 isn't mentioned. Anyone know if there is a dial available? Also, am I dealing with photo finish on the cabinet? Finally, any opinions on this set? Obviously was high end back in the day, but is it worth restoring?
