[NJARC] Beautiful Philco 42-1012 Cabinet

[carolew]

Guys, I just picked up a Philco 42-1012 radio-phono combination. The cabinet is beautiful. I'd rate it 8 on a scale of 1-10. The wood is literally lustrous. Unfortunately, the radio suffered significant rodent damage. (I hate them meeses to pieces).

I'm on the fence about what to do. I may take a shot at rewiring the radio. On the other hand, if my repair efforts fail (decent odds), I would love to be able to give the cabinet to someone would could use it. It's just too nice to toss. I'm in Morris Plains. Any interest?

I bought this radio yesterday. Because the cabinet looked so good, I was shocked when I got home and found all the rodent damage under the chassis. In retrospect, I consider the entire incident to be divine retribution for skipping out on yesterdays's NJARC swapmeet.
