Up for sale is a very nice Philco model 39-8t tube radio. I have polished and cleaned up for the wood for its new owner. It has been tested and does not work. There is a hum when plugged in but there is no sound. It displays beautifully and would make a nice project if you want to functionally bring it back to life. Please review all photos for condition. Please ask any and all questions prior to purchasing. Thank you for looking!

Vintage, Art Deco Philco Model 37-62, that is a great candidate for restoration. Radio is only able get some static and the volume is low, so it will need to have the capacitors replaced to get it functioning. All of the tubes tested good on my Eico Model 625 tube tester. 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. A close inspection of the plastic dial indicator reveals that it was broken at one point and repaired with tape/glue. In addition, the light that illuminates the dial indicator is missing. The power cord is in good condition, a little stiff and the grill cloth is in good shape, with no rips or holes. The finish on the radio is all original and has simply been cleaned and polished with a professional wood wax. There is some wear to the faux finish on the front face, and a veneer chip along the back edge of the left side of the radio, but overall, the radio still presents well. With a little bit of restoration work, this radio will be a fine addition to your collection. Restored models without the original faux finish have commanded big prices. Do not hesitate to make an offer, all will be considered.

Item is in very good physical condition. Item has been tested and I was unable to tune to any station. There is a constant hum when turned on. The tuning knob is not perfect, it is distorted and rubs when turned.
