Bob;
I like the looks of these slanted panel Philco table sets but have never owned one, the closest thing I have is the chassis and speaker out of a 40-180, or the Canadian version of which. I did not know that the 39-25 through 39-35 sets had a celluloid dial scale, the chassis I have has one of the more typical back painted dial glasses in brown. Philco definately got some mileage out of that chasis, they used versions of it with as many as ten tubes up until 1942. I heard that some call them "console top" sets, maybe that was unusual in the U.S but in Canada it was a pretty popular idea, some even looked like they cut the top off a console with the speaker grille bellow and the control panel at the top.
Nice to see that the power transformer repair was successful. Do you know if the IF cans used rubber covered wire as well? By the way, I think that the other transformer/choke under the chassis is the output transformer, I'm not sure about the single ended models but the output transformers in sets with push pull screen grid inversion have a habit of going open.
