Welcome to the Phorum!!!
Icon_wave
Chuck has excellent schematics and any documentation that was printed about changes for just a few bucks.  Well worth it. See http://www.philcorepairbench.com/schematics.htm

Also Ron has outlined the evolution of the 89 cabinets and chassis here  
http://www.philcoradio.com/tech/89evol.htm

Something else you'll need as you restore this radio: Bakelite block condenser information.  Find that info here:
http://www.philcoradio.com/tech/blocks.htm
http://www.philcoradio.com/tech/images/bakelite.pdf


and info on rebuilding/stuffing the bakelite blocks here:
http://www.philcorepairbench.com/capbuild.htm

Keep us posted on progress and questions!
Cheers,
Bob
