Hello all!
I recently picked up a Philco 38-2 shell in decent condition for $50 and am looking at restoring it. I can't find many parts for it but I see that the faceplate/bezel and the chassis from the 38-1 and 38-3 are more readily available.
I realize the 38-3 chassis has less tubes but is it a drop-in replacement for the 38-2? Also is the faceplate/bezel the same between the models?
Thanks for any help and advice!
