Philco Chairside model A-801
#3

Re: ChairSide Radio...

Are the button caps round or square? If square, and about three-eights across, it might be possible to find a Chrysler product radio that has been removed so as to replace it with a 'modern' stereo set. Good place to start would be an automotive 'flea' market. Watch out, though... There were also Motorolas built for Chrysler. They were generally the lesser sets, with only 5 pushbuttons, and mechanical at that. Those button caps will not fit the Philco. Those Philco car radios were really nice sets. Sensitive, selective and GREAT sound.
