Philco 38-7 Radiobar Restoration
#1

Folks,

I recently purchased a beautiful excellent condition Radiobar cabinet, without any radio chassis, but a label inside calls for a Philco model 38-7, as the installed unit. Fair enough. The question I have is: which chassis is the correct one for this model? The front dial face is mounts vertically for the Radiobar. The 38-7 console model has the 25+ degree (eyeball estimate) offset for easy viewing. If I bought a table cabinet "T" with the 121 chassis, would this work? Or am I looking at the 124 chassis? I do not have one to check against the Radiobar. I need your collective expert guidance
