This radio was on the local Kijiji so I picked it up. It is missing some tubes push buttons and the knobs.
The push buttons might be a bit of a challenge, but Sparton used a lot of generic knobs , so the knobs won't be
much of a problem.
The cabinet needs refinishing but everything is there, including the grill cloth, and the speaker.
It is a six tube radio , model 6340, 1939/40
I particularly like the dial indicator and was surprised that it is in such good condition.
I won't get to the cabinet until spring but hopefully I can get the radio working during the winter.
I will try to post some photos after I get it done.
Oh wow Dan -- that tuning dial/cap mechanism looks like a WONDERFUL contraption just by itself. I'll be looking forward to seeing your restoration of this one, FOR SURE!! :-) :-) :-)
