I mentioned I got a GE AA5 from a pal at work, cabinet is cleaned up, epoxiied inside and about done. The numberson the dial are fragile and I am not going to clean in that spot anymore not to rub them off. No model number and I have not found it in an archive yet.

On another GE note featured are 2 probably early eighties models recently found on the bay. Rare for me to go there and rarer to buy. I needed a better portable and this looked clean and the little table set fits on my small kitchen table. Both are surprisingly sensitive and sound pretty good. The portable is a good AM Dxer at nite.
Total for both less than 25.00. So by most standards not very vintage but by 2017 standards very vintage. Table set #7-4115B portable #7-2857A

Chassis GE pics added now.
