I've started doing a little chassis work on my 60MB that was damaged in shipping: http://www.philcoradio.com/phorum/showth...p?tid=6399

The only damage to the chassis appears to be the dial lamp and pointer smashed into the dial scale and shattered it. I've already bent them back into position.

Here's the chassis after a little cleaning and rust removal.

It would be nice to find a couple vintage electrolytic cans to mount in that holder.

It appears the speaker has been reconed in the distant past and they did a great job Icon_smile
