Is the 38-12 the same cabinet as the PT-30???
#8

Thanks everyone!! Well since the guy did a beautiful job cleaning the chassis, then no back it is. I appreciate all your help!! This is a new hobby for me and I am really enjoying it. I've only got a few Philco's in my collection so far. This is what I have;

37-650
PT-25
46-420
50-522
52-542

It's a fun hobby and am so glad I found this Phorum!! So much information here that has helped!! I don't know anything about restoring them electrically but have really enjoyed bringing the cabinets back to life and displaying them!!! Thanks again!!

Cheers!
John
