Philco 650B Chassis Restoration
#5

That looks really nice John. Thanks for the tip. I also have a 37-116 chassis to do. When I first purchased it, I did a temporary change out of the filter caps to see if the radio had any serious issues. It didn't, it plays fine, so now I need to clean it and do a full recap. I haven't pursued this because the cabinet on mine may not be restorable. It has lots of cracked veneer. I am waiting to see if another cabinet might turn up in better shape.

BTW, here is a Philco 90 chassis I did a while back. I think it turned out decent.
