I just bought a Model 86 off the local Craigslist board. It has a broken wooden piece that went in front of the speaker. The four edge sections are there but that is it. Does someone have a model 86 that would be willing to make a tracing of the piece so I can make one? Thanks, I am new to the phorum but have several Philco radios that I've restored over the years.

I just found a guy with an 86 that had posted a youtube video about his new find and he is willing to trace out the speaker grille pattern for me.

So, it looks like I'm all set!
