Philco 70 Lowboy
#5

It is the model 70 lowboy! Thank goodness I decided to take another look instead of calling and just telling the guy to part it out! Icon_eek 

   

   

After seeing what it actually was, I went from mildly interested (was also considering a really nice Zenith Allegro component stereo with all the options), to a man on a mission. I did my little power transformer test before doing the purchase and that checked ok. I guess he had two really nice 70 cathedrals at one point and the dial esc.. (still can't spell it), went on one of those. He still has one, but sold the other and is getting ready to clear out his whole collection in the next year or so.

No matter where you go, there you are.
