Brian,... "whew"!! (hee hee)!!!!...nice chassis indeed!.... you only have about 10 more caps to go!, then your ready for the ol-variac slow up test!Mostly good condition orig cloth-wiring insulation too!?? Ah, the "sound",.. the "great feeling" of supplying new-life into a fine vintage Philco!!From the looks of the orig bias-resistor, dont be surprised if you get audio very soon!!Looks like the sets chassis is not badly-molested from the past too boot! Im not that lucky these days!(hee hee)!! I know you will do a great-job in bringing that set back to life!! Enjoy your vintage Philco!! Thanks for the photos!! As Texans always sayIcon_sadCaledonia !!.. git a lil on ya!!) hee hee!! Icon_wink
