Philco 42-22CL
#16

Thanks, guys! Icon_biggrin

Well, Debbie and I were discussing this radio last night, and she said "If you really like it, then you should keep it."

So it won't make it to Kutztown...it's staying here. Icon_thumbup

Now that I've decided to keep it, I may attach the original clock hands. Or, just the hour and minute hands. The hole in the hour hand is slightly larger than the hour shaft on the new mechanism, but could be tightened up if done carefully (I've done this before on a GE kitchen clock conversion to battery). Now, the hole in the minute hand is smaller than the minute shaft on the new motor, but can be easily drilled out.

I think I will keep the new second hand as I prefer the contrasting black second hand. The original hands were all red, including the second hand, and the original second hand is very similar to the new second hand.
