I have never restored an antique radio, but I am excited about my project. I found a 37-610J cabinet at a swap meet with a terrible finish on it. I have sanded the old finish off and I can tell it's been restored before.
I bought a 37-620 tombstone radio (non working). The radio is still in transit so I have not received it yet. From the research I have done so far, I have found that both use a 121 or 125 chassis.
I am not looking for perfection, I would just love to have it looking nice and working. Hoping I can find someone near me, who can work on the radio.
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks!
Dennis
