I suggest you sell it as is to a collector who would like to restore it themselves and add it to their collection. If you restore it yourself, both the cabinet, which, while still very restorable, will need some work to re-finish, and the radio itself, will require spending money on parts. You will have to go through the radio and replace ALL the paper and electrolytic condensers, including those in bakelite blocks and filter condenser cans. You will also probably have to replace most of the resistors. Then you will also have to test the tubes, and replace any which are bad or weak. Some may well still be fine. Then there is the matter of the knobs. The main source for reproduction replacement knobs for these old sets just closed up his business, and it is still unknown if anybody will take that over, so, good luck with that. You MIGHT get lucky and find a set being sold on eBay. Now, all these parts will cost money. You don't say if you purchased the radio, or if you already have any money into it, but, if you do, add that to the cost to consider. So, if you do the restoration, and do a good job, the fact is, you will be VERY lucky to break even when you sell it, since you will only be selling to those willing to come pick it up, and that seriously limits your market. So, my advice is, either restore it yourself for your own use and pleasure, and as something your family can enjoy in years to come, or sell it AS IS to someone who will restore it as a labor of love and do exactly that for themselves.
