Try a Zenith 7G-605 Bomber chassis, I have a couple I did complete point-to-point wiring, even into the separate bandswitch bank. Small Philcos are tough, but the Zeniths orig crusty wiring and space restraints tops my hardest of all restorations. Just takes time and lots of patience one wire at a time, and tweezers,a good overhead magnifier lamp, small soldering tips also comes in very handy! Icon_wink
