Just like Ron, I did a lot of foolish things with radios many years ago. But we live and learn.

I ALWAYS restuff the bakelite blocks and keep them in the radio. This usually does not take any longer than removing them and mounting terminal strips, and it keeps the Philco original. Also, it avoids the possibility of potential problems in certain stages of the radio from re-directing the original lead dress.
