Philco 48-360
#7

I saw this post while searching for info. on this model.
Recently in sorting through some storage I tripped over this radio, I had forgotten I had it.
I thought, it's time to restore it.
It's in good shape, however the handle, which if i remember was falling apart is no longer with it, however the 2 end caps for it are there.
A quick visual on the chassis shows the can capacitor had actually exploded. It's all deformed and has at least one hole in the side of it. There is no other damage I can see but the can is badly deformed.
I need to find something to put in it's place. I don't care about the value it's just for show. I would put the correct values under it. I obviously don't even care if it's good just looks like it is !
Anyone seen someone selling a cap that has the same physical dimensions? or have a suggestion where to look?
Or maybe has a parts chassis?
I just can't leave the original in the chassis

As the original person who posted this said the philco number is 30-2560

I haven't pulled it or tried to measure it's dimensions yet.
