When you're spending $3000+ on a radio, you're getting into E.H. Scott territory. I don't ordinarily see 37-690 or 38-690 sets bring much more than $1500, often less.
Sam, I know someone who has a good, restorable 37-690 that he wants to sell, and it won't be anywhere near $3700. Send me a PM or email for details (and no, the seller is not me).
I have to ask, just who is this "best" restorer? Remember, $$$$ does not always equal the best.
A wife would prefer the 37-690 cabinet, as do most of us collectors. But like I said before, most of us prefer the 38-690's electronics.
The ideal setup would probably be a 38-690 double chassis in a 37-690 cabinet. But then, that would not be original.
