Just completed this afternoon. The original 72 year old electric clock still keeps perfect time....although when I went to put the chassis back in the cabinet, it stopped doing so. 
Turns out one of the two wires to on the plug attached to the clock broke off flush against the plug itself and I didn't see it until everything was all back together. So, I was able to take the clock out without having to remove the chassis again, and luckily there was enough wire left that I could just strip off the insulation and solder it inside the pin again (removing the old stub inside the pin first, of course). I removed the other wire from the pin as well and cut it to the same length, re-soldering it to that pin again too.
Nice performing radio....surprised to even get a few sporadic stations on the police band!
I gather this set is somewhat rare, judging by the relatively low production number of around 8000?
