Well, here's a bit about my latest "save"...a Model 66S.
A month ago, I acquired this poor little set:

from our favorite online auction place.
The cabinet had been refinished all one color, and not very well. I actually made time to re-refinish this one, and it is now done in the proper factory two-tone colors. I don't have a digital camera, guys; sorry. But mine now looks like this:

When I get this roll of film finished and developed, I'll post a pic of mine...
I haven't done anything with the chassis yet, other than get rid of that Zenith PM speaker and install the proper Philco Type S-7 electrodynamic. The chassis is a Model 60, so I guess I'll be looking for a 66 chassis, too...
