Hi there,
I'm not a radio buff..but I love old stuff!!..I have a Philco chassis model71 code 225...it needs a little work/refinishing. It worked the last time I plugged it in...about 2 years ago. I'm wondering if it is worth it to refinish or should I sell it as is? How much could I expect to get both ways? Or how much would it cost to refinish? I would love to refinish and keep it, because I used it alot growing up and I have nice memories....but with tough times...I will.. regretfully, sell it Icon_sad

Any advise would be appreciated!!
Thanks
