Philco model 51-930 Restoration
#3

Hello Everyone,
I just started my latest restoration a Philco model 51-930 here are a few photos showing the chassis with all of it's original Philco brand Capacitors and I bet all the tubes are original too.
As you look at the bottom of the chassis in the photo check out the capacitor with all the wax on it that is the across the line capacitor !
Anyway I was thinking of Stuffing the capacitors but said heck no .

One good thing with this set it is not full of rubber wiring .

Sincerely Richard
