New Radios
#1

I recently purchased a Zenith 8S154 chassis to replace a non-functioning 6S152 of a friend. The chassis will need tubes and labor but cost only $50.

My second purchase is a Zenith 11S474 to replace my Zenith 7S363 as my den radio. The cabinet is in very good condition and the chassis has had some renovation. I wanted a Philco 38-1 but someone swooped it from me. If you can't get a Philco get a Zenith.

Hay! Wait a minute. Those are old radios Icon_lol

Good deal on the 8S154. I was just posting a picture of mine on that other - less friendly forum. So I might as well post it here too.

Good luck with yours. It is easily a $500 radio when it is restored properly and usually a $100 + radio before.
