Welcome to the Phorum, jacques! Looks like a very restorable Philco 70. I've seen worse cabinets. It looks like its' been serviced in the past (different tubes manufacturers), and the escutcheon was re-installed crooked. It's also missing the tube shield. Looks like mice enjoyed the warmth looking at the surface rust. All in all a desirable radio in need of a full chassis and cabinet restoration. Also in its' favor is it isn't a console. I wouldn't make an offer without seeing the circuitry underneath. Take care, - Gary
