Thank you for visiting “mtihotak-53″! We value the following! Careful packaging? Sincere customer service. For that reason, we ask for your understanding and cooperation in the listing of this product. The exterior case is a two-tone color that makes use of the wood grain, with a similar color oil stain and varnish applied. The dust cover on the dial part has been painted on the back, so the dial pointer / dial / pilot light cannot be seen well, and the back cover is missing. There are some signs of use due to the passage of time, but scratches and scuffs have been masked and repainted, the speaker cloth (cloth) has been renewed and replaced, and the three dials and knobs that were originally there are still there, so it is in good condition. The vacuum tubes used are “UZ-57 / UY-27 / UX-12A / KX-12F”, which are now vintage ST tubes, total of four, and the speaker’s voltage coil was broken, so I replaced it with an equivalent one I had on hand. The dial operation is “power switch / for main variable capacitor / for playback variable capacitor” from the left. Other major restoration work included: replacing the power cord, pilot lamp cord, and speaker cord for safety reasons; the electrolytic capacitor was not acceptable, so removed it and installed relay lugs in the empty space and replaced it with new “22? F 250V x 2, 33? F 50V x 2″ to restore it to its original condition; the resistor in the cathode circuit of the output tube was broken, so I used a 1K? Resistor I had on hand to restore it to its original condition; one of the lead wires inside the mica capacitor attached to the first grid of the high frequency amplifier tube was broken, so I replaced this; there was a play that could not be repaired in the restored variable capacitor, so I replaced it with one I had on hand to restore it to its original condition; the variable capacitor shaft was a little loose, so I tightened the adjustment bolt to restore it to its original condition; oil maintenance was performed on each rotating part of the variable capacitor, etc. 2-3 solder joints had come loose, so this was repaired; there was an “input terminal for the PU” on the back of the chassis, so although it is shared with the radio circuit, an external input cord was installed; the coating of each wiring was in poor condition, so It has been restored to its original condition by inserting new insulating coating material, etc. And is now fully functional. The inside of the chassis has also been cleaned, and the output sensitivity of the “external input PU function” is also good. By the way, the size is width 36cm / height 24.5cm / total depth 20.5cm, and the weight is about 4kg. Please check the photos and feel free to ask me any questions you may have.

Radio powers up, but I could detect a capacitor odor and shut the unit down immediately, so it will need some work to get it functioning. Chassis is very clean with no evidence of rust or corrosion. All of the knobs turn smoothly and properly and the dial indicator works properly as well. The cloth power cord is in poor condition, taped in spots and will need to be replaced. The finish on the radio is all original and has simply been cleaned and polished with a professional wood wax and presents quite well, but the top is showing wear, as well as a small veneer chip on the left side (see photos). The grill cloth is in excellent condition. Also included is an original instruction sheet for this model. With a little bit of restoration work, this radio will be a fine addition to your collection. Do not hesitate to make an offer, all will be considered.
Vintage, Art Deco Philco Model 37-62, that is a great candidate for restoration.

Chassis is very clean with no evidence of rust or corrosion. All of the knobs turn smoothly and properly and the dial indicator functions properly as well.

I was not able to receive anything on the shortwave band, but that is not unusual for this area, as the signal is not strong.

The radio is 10 1/2″ long, 6 1/2″ deep and 6 1/2 high – original knobs, orig label on the base – a very nice example. The radio has a crack in the plastic type dial, still there and usable but it has a crack. The radio has a good cord and hums loudly when plugged in – probably a tube but should be serviced. A handsome set with totally rounded ends and curved in every direction.
Vintage Zenith Model 6-S-27 Tombstone Radio that is a great candidate for restoration. Radio has been recapped and a new electrical cord has been installed as well. Unfortunately, the unit is still not working – I was only able to get some static noises when I placed a wire to the antenna screw on the rear. The tuning dial is not functioning as well, as it needs a new belt. The finish on the radio is all original and has simply been cleaned and polished with a professional wood wax.
