37-610 Restoration
#1
Smile 

Hello Everyone,
New member here and I wanted to thank you all for welcoming me aboard.  I had posted in the new members section yesterday and mentioned that I had just stumbled on to this very nice floor console. Please understand that although I've been an electronics tech for nearly fifty years, I have hardly any experience in restoring vintage radios.  So …. I'll get right to it.  Icon_smile 

First, please help me understand the model.  From what I can gather this is a 37-610J (picture is in my post from yesterday). It appears there are table radios with the same model with only the suffix changed.  Is that correct?

On to the simple stuff ….

This dial lamp doesn't look right to me.  Someone spliced a wire with a #47 lamp and holder.  Can somebody here tell me what should go there or if this is correct.

Thanks,
Randy
