Firestone 4-A-115
#1

Picked this up at a local flea market just for something to keep busy with.  Thought it was kind of ugly at first but it grew on me.  The grill cloth is actually a plastic woven mesh that I had no hope of finding anything even close to so cleaned it up as much as possible and used it again.  The recap etc. was pretty straight forward.  The only pictures of this model I could locate were on airchiefradios.com and on a PhotoFact page.  The catalog picture doesn't look like the one I have, I believe its the blond model rather than the mahogany that I have.  The PhotoFact pic is exactly the same.
