That will be one nice radio when you are done with it. Interesting the way your speaker is bolted to the board. My 38-1 is just the opposite...upside down. Actually there is no room to install it the way yours is because of the inclined chassis shelf. Those are heavy dudes aren't they?! Your grille cloth looks fairly good...going to keep it? I hope you can. Current replacement cloth is fairly $$$$$. Good luck.
