Philco 48-1286 Restoration
#3

Thanks for the reply. I am in the detroit area.

How much would you expect it to cost to take it somewhere and get it in safe working order? My grandpa was the original owner and this unit has spent it's time indoors and well cared for.

Also I am new to antique radios. Are there any rare parts on this unit that I should make sure stay on the unit?

Note from site admin: Sorry, but the photos which were attached to this post are no longer available.
