I got lucky today and was able to pick up this 37-116x DeLuxe.

The only problems I can see right off is one of the knobs is incorrect, and the speaker is trashed. Seems grand kids and old grill cloth and speakers don't play well together. The chassis is a monster on this radio and looks fairly complicated with the magnetic tuning circuits. Should be a fun restore.

Thanks to my wife who tolerates my hobby.. Icon_biggrin

Here are a couple pics:
