Would suspect that chassis is a Transitone of some vintage 1938-42 or so. It's not a standard Philco production cabinet. Maybe the chassis was retro fitted to that cabinet or possible the cabinet is homemade/high school wood shop project. In any event those vintage Transitones are wired with rubber coated wire which deteriorates. With there smallish chassis makes them a bit of a pita the repair/restore.
