I just purchased a 37-665 from Ebay. The radio uses an 80 tube versus the 5Y4 called for. The dial needs replaced (27-5422) and the radio is missing the shadowgraph unit and upper dial restraint bracket. I'm not picky about a complete restoration. I just want a completely functional radio. I'm willing to spend money for a donor chassis with the proper (hopefully working) part. The radio only works on one of the shortwave bands. Also the tuning dial is cracked and discolored.

Here my plea to restore to use, a somewhat rare, vintage radio. I already had a Zenith 7S363 repaired and functional. My preference is tube radios with their warm, rich sound.
