My older daughter asked if I'd be interested in this radio for $5 (for sale in Dublin, TX where she lives). I said sure, fully expecting it to just be for parts. After seeing that the chassis and antenna were in decent shape, I decided to try to salvage it. I stabilized the cracked right side with epoxy and then used a metal, plastic, and fiberglass polish called Flitz on the cabinet and metal trim. It worked well. I used Novus #2 on the dial face. All the tubes tested good and I did the standard capacitor and resistor replacements. As received photos are below. End result is at https://youtu.be/H-Gc-jr-wcM
