This set was bought about.....4 or 5 years ago.
I am not a  big fan of this period but I wanted a set with FM. And the price was not bad, maybe $85 with local pickup.

I am questioning the need to have it now as the Grundig has just filled that niche, but it is there, it needs restoration, so.....

Today was the "take apart" day.
I have to say, it is not very convenient, taking apart the sets with vertical chassis mount at  an angle.
Especially the last bolt that has about 1.5" of space around it and has to be taken out with a socket wrench, that makes 1 click per iteration.

Anywho.

It is very clean. And! It seems there is no rubber wiring, or at least there is no crumbling one.
There is a couple of wooden pieces that probably unglued themselves from somewhere, which I will try to find out later.

Q1: There is unconnected part attached to one of the wooden risers. Not sure what it is; could probably search but hey! it is a Philco Phorum so methought, why don't I ask first?

   


Now the radio.
   
   
   
   


The radio has a load of caps; will take lots of restuffing. If I decide to go for it;
It has a newer cord that is attached by wire nuts inside.
Otherwise no other repairs are obvious.
