Silvertone 45 chassis

No, don't sell it. Judging by the available (not!) information and huge number of people who answered Kirk's questions on ARF and elsewhere about it, this radio is not your omnipresent type. I found one reference to it and even that was some variant of it, not exact same one.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

Kirk ,
  I'm impressed! I would never have given that radio a second thought. You certainly have the patience of a saint to tackle that job.
