Philco 46-1201 code 125
#17

Thanks for the info, now I ordered the electrolytic caps on the schematic doesn't specify the voltage rating of any wax cap, I can see some 400v so I will order all the same, I have a bag of mkt (red radial ones from china) rated 630v, anyone has try this caps? Are reliable enough for this type of radios? 
The rubber or PVC insulation of the wires are surprisingly in good condition so I will leave them, the antenna coil I soldered the thin wire broken and now I have continuity between each pair of lugs so I suppose is ok now, I used a little bit of hot air to melt again the wax to cover the repair, I have to find if the values are ok but my meter is not working now for some reason...
The running cap was removed greased and cleaned and at the same time the chassis, looks very good with only some light acid and wd40. 
Next step will be try to find something suitable for the light diffuser that have a black spot, I think the lamp is too big for this radio.
I post some photos of the progress 
Best regards
