Someone a few miles from me is selling what I think is a model 38-3xx based on the picture they emailed me. I don't know yet the extent of the shape of the chassis etc, but the cabinet and grille cloth look to be in very nice shape and original. However, the tuning section and subchassis from what I've been reading on previous forum posts is a bit of a bear to work on. They are asking $40.00 for the radio and wondered if I should let this one go by. Since I have a 531 and 38-7 console, maybe I don't really need another console in the house (I should really be asking the wife lol). As always, thanks for the help![/img]
