Bill , I am doing the same radio over that you are .Picked mine up for $25
along the road side also. Right now I am going through it and putting heat shrink and caps throughout. It will be a while until I fire it up yet.Like yours most of the cosmitic stuff was gone on this one.But the cabinet was still in great shape. Behind the dial glass (which was missing)there are two wire springs with some white plastic hanging on them.Does your radio have this part intact? If so could you descrube it for me? I am imagining that it is a sheet of white plastic to back up the dial pointer and make it stand out. But I am guessing .Thanks !

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
