I would like to find a 116px or a 610pf, 630pf, 635pf, 640pf all flip top radios, but all were sold in low volumes.
Did any make it into collections?
Any around?

The models you mention are radio-phonographs.

I once saw the remains of a 610/630/635/640PF cabinet at AWA in Rochester some years ago. There was nothing inside - even the mounting board for the phonograph was gone - and the cabinet was in very bad shape. It was actually sitting next to a trash can. I looked at it, thought about it, realized it would take more work than I had time for, and left it there. I wonder if anyone rescued it.

If anyone runs into a 116px, even in that very poor condition I would be interested.

Thanks
