I reached the finish line for this radio. It was actually one of the easiest restorations I've done. The cabinet was in good shape to start with and there were only a few caps to replace. I never did find cap C11 so if its there it still should be replaced. The corroded part of the frame that served as the connection for the negative on the A Battery was stripped of loose rust with a small wire brush on a Dremel tool, coated with Rustoleum Rust Reformer(two coats of the liquid version) and painted with Rustoleum Aluminum (oil based) just to make it look a little better. The actual electrical contact was similar to the previous repair, a button head machine screw with a wire secured with a nut and washer soldered to ground. Its a bit of a tight fit for the A Battery but the case closes so all should be good. I'll finish by making a reproduction Eveready 467 battery box for the B battery.
