Hi all, I am new not only to this site, but am working on my first radio restoration.
I got a Philco A-361 from my cousin (She had no room for it) that her parents bought new in 1942. It was pretty rough when I got it, But lot's of sanding, paint remover and scraping and hour's of watching video's, I got it to look nice. Probably not to "Professional standards" but hey I'm not a professional.
Just was looking for a few part's for this thing and either they are not real common, not a real popular build, or I just ain't doing it right. I got the radio working good but if there is a light that is supposed to come on for like a back light behind the dial window, that don't work so might need a bulb for that, I haven't had a chance to to check that yet. The part's I'm looking for are the knobs and bezels, the decal for the front and maybe the new glass piece for the dial.
Hope I posted this in the right spot!! Thanks in advance for any help.
