Philco 112X electronics restoration.
#1

Well, 

Thanks to Kirk Icon_twisted  Icon_lol I am a happy albeit running out of space (well.....having run by now) owner of Philco 112X. The "X" has been on my list for some time, though I thought it would be 14X or something of the similar ones. The radio looked great and the price was just right also.....so I caved in.

Since the pics from For sale online will eventually disappear together with the thread, I have decided to repeat them here.


   
   



These are front photos taken with my tablet. These are likely to be rotated so I would ask moderators if possible rotate the pics so one would not have to twist one's neck in order to view them.

Now, the back is off.

Rfeenstra, yes there is some burgundy soft cloth lining the back. It is in decent shape and won't require replacement.

   

Upon opening I found an envelope with some extra grillcloth.
I wonder if Ron could tell me if it is close to original.

   
   
These are how it looks and zoomig in on the pattern.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
