Welcome to the Phorum!

First stop is the Philco Gallery:

The main difference between the 37-675 'Standard' and 'Deluxe' is that the Deluxe has an "Automatic Tuning" dial which lets you quickly dial in a station preset while the 'Standard' has, well, a standard dial. The standard does have a shadow meter to aid tuning which the deluxe does not have. Philco did a similar thing with the 37-116 'Standard' and more common 'Deluxe' version.

According to the gallery link the 'Standard' version is the more common of the 37-675 models (7,200 vs 1,500 produced). A great looking set either way - and with 12 tubes it will be an excellent performing broadcast AM and shortwave radio once restored.

We have a variety of scans of owners manuals on the Philco Library site under Documents -> Philco Documents -> Manuals:

It doesn't like we yet have a scan of the manual for the 37-675 specifically though.

You might be just as well served by the Philco Service Bulletin #261 for the 37-675 which you can find a scan of here by searching:

Now for some advice - you probably don't want to run the set any more without replacing at least the filter capacitors otherwise important (and hard to replace) components can be damaged.

If you want the set to really work as intended you'll want to go through and replace all of the paper capacitors (both in bakelite blocks and tubular versions) and replace any out of tolerance resistors, replace any weak tubes, etc.

You'll find lots of help here on the Phorum in you decide to embark on a radio restoration adventure of your own.
