Thanks a bunch.. I was getting REAL worried since I just ordered a bunch of resistors and capacitors for the 37-60. Just now I was going over the schematic for the 38-89 and comparing it to pictures underneath mine. Totally different. The radio was always at my father's house since the 50s. I slept next to it. It stayed in a closet since the early 70s. House was air conditioned. Color is good on the wires. I bought a cheap front panel to practice finishing. Finding that non acetone nail polish remover OR brake cleaner smooths out the alligator flaking without removing the decal (another post). Thanks again..
