Now that is interesting. Would explain why I haven't yet heard of a Japanese set with bad IF cans, even the real cheap radios they made. I did find out that 'bar' is actually attached to the chassis after all and only screwed to the front of the cabinet for stability. Only hurdle to taking it apart for servicing later is getting that plastic dial scale off to work the dial pointers through.
No matter where you go, there you are.
