Hi and welcome!
Hmmmm model 17. Yes it is beastly. If it has an eight inch speaker it would be a model 17B, like this one   http://philcoradio.com/gallery2/1933b/#Model_17B
What to do ? Well you could hunt down a cabinet and rebuild the set. Looks to use the same cabinet as the 91B and they do turn up pretty regularly. The 17's and 43's not so much.
You could drop Steve a note and he could build one you for.

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
