You need some European walnut veneer to fix that control panel, don't know about the shoulders. Rubber wiring is the main issue in early 40s Philcos, is the Dial in good shape? If you need a schematic I found my 1940 Philco manual, I could dig it out tomorrow if you still need it. I also have a manual that should have the model 71 (or Canadian equivalent)if you want that scanned as well. How could I get them to you? Email?
Best Regards
Arran
