Hi Guy's,
Picked one of these up from a guy this week.
Has not one, but 2 remotes. He was given a spare from someone who apparently parted out his radio.
Hoping that I can re-cap it and get it working again.
I restored a 40-300x a few months ago that was a nightmare to work on.
I am guessing this one will be real similar?
Bringing home a Crosley 02-CA console this week as well. Talk about a big dial.
Will probably be asking for some help on the Philco I'm sure.
Not the best looking cabinet on the philco.
Surprising as it was there top of the line in 39.
If anyone has any parts for the Crosley, let me know.
Thanks and have a great day,
murf
