Picked up this Philco 71 today from a very nice lady (Lynn) who posted an ad here on the Phorum.

The cabinet is in excellent shape. A touch up here and there and it should be good to go. There is no loose veneer and looks like it has the original knobs.

The electronics thats going to be a little work. some one cut an spliced in a new cord, and its missing one of the Elec caps, and the speaker is destroyed and will need to be re-coned.

Should be a fun project when I get to it since there are 3-4 radios to do before I get to this one.. Icon_biggrin
