Philco 37-620 equivalents
#2

Greetings!

The following Philco chassis will fit without modifications:

37-610, 37-611, 37-620, 37-630, 37-640, 37-2620.

I purposely left battery-operated chassis out of the above list as I assume you want something that will operate from the AC mains. Also, you are probably aware of this but the USA-manufactured sets were designed to operate on 110-115 volts AC. You'll need to switch transformers or use an external transformer that will drop your 240 volt AC mains to the old USA 110-115 volt standard. (Our line voltages are now up to around 125 volts in this country.)

I have no idea where you might find a complete chassis with speaker. These come up on eBay with fair regularity. Another thought is to find a compete set with a bad or otherwise unrestorable cabinet.
