One Philco dead so another may live !
#1

   
I'm restoring a B1750 (1954) radio phonograph console.   I removed, cleaned and re lubed the GI phonograph motor, but the idler wheel assembly/sliding bracket, which allows the rpm speed to change,  was bent up like someone had possibly tried to work on it and dropped it or something.
      The bracket was beyond repair, so I salvaged another bracket from a  53-1350 radio (same exact phonograph parts and radio chasis)  phonograph that I was planning on restoring as well. I  cleaned it up , lubed it and works great but  I actually feel bad I had to take the part from my next restoration.    Does anyone know if these old brackets and/or motor assemblies are sold anywhere on line?  Or maybe I just have to find a basket case that someone is selling for parts and salavage a  new idler arm bracket assembly from that?    Thanks
