I'm working on a real basket case Philco (just the kind I like).  The chassis model number is not distinguishable, maybe 42-1?65.  Ther used to be a website with a name kile "grillcloth" that had a great search system for identifying radios by way of the tube lineup.  I can' seem to find that site.  Can anyone help?  Thanks.

Post a picture of the radio and that might help to ID it as well.
Cheers,
Bob
