Wow, Doug, if I had the room and the $$$, I would love to have a prewar Belvedere with a CR-181 chassis. Congratulations!
Sorry to hear about your Buick.
According to the information I have, the only chairside Philco produced in the 1937 model year was the 37-620CS.

No, the 37-650 radio-phonograph isn't in that book, but all three 37-650 versions (tombstone, console, and radio-phonograph) are pictured on my website. I've only seen one 37-650PX radio-phono, and that was in the late 1990s, the only time I've ever been to an AWA-Rochester meet (so far). I seem to recall that you were there, Doug, and that we talked at some length while there. Anyway, someone had a 37-650 radio-phono there, and asked me to photograph it. It's on my website:
