     I am possibly going to be doing a chassis restoration on  Philco model 37-116. 
        I have seen the radio at a glance and it looks like a 38-116 by the tuning dial,which is quite different than the 37-116.  My question is: approximately  how many Bakelite blocks are in this radio that need to be changed?
    Also how much of a challenge is this radio to recap?  I know it depends on the qualification of the person doing the work, but relative to a Rogers 10-12 how hard is it.
  Thanks in advance   Dan
