A friend brought me a 1933 Ford car radio to see if it might be repairable.  Its the Grigsby Grunow chassis with the reverse dial.  It appears that an exploded cap caused the failure, but rather than repair it, the original owner knew where the gold was; the tubes! (2) 6E7, (1) 6A7-S, (1) 6C7 and (1) 6Y5, (all shielded) were removed.

I have explored the possible renovation with modern components (Aurora), but am trying to avoid the cost as I want him to remain a friend.  Thus, I have spend some time looking for tubes, and without much success.  (1) 6E7 out on ebay currently, but these tubes are obviously few and far between.  Looking for ideas as to sources for these tubes or if there is a serviceable Grigsby or Zenith chassis out there (again that is not $500+). 

I just thought that perhaps one of you folks might just have something sitting in your junk boxes out there.  BTW, I will be at the Charlotte AWS convention in March.

Any ideas or thoughts that you may have are greatly appreciated.
