Unfortunately my problem still isn't over! We went out to Lowe's and bought four J bolts only to find that they don't line up with the holes. They are at least an inch away from the chassis posts. I checked Ron's fine book and the tube positions (I don't have the tube numbers since all are gone) are exactly the same. I saw some internet photos of the back and the antenna terminals are identical. I checked all the other 1937 chassis and none come close. What the heck is going on??? PS. Interestingly, none of the photos I saw had bolts showing!

I know I also saw another resource that pictured all Philco chassis but can't remember where I found them. Possibly on this site?
