As soon as I can  get one ordered I'll  do it.  Thanks to all that replied!  This radio has  a  very clean front face but top cage needs to be  stripped and repainted.  I have a  friend that  paints cars  that can take care of it for me.  The bottom and sides are good as well as the text for the side connectors.  

I may fabricate a strain relief for the Cinch Jones connector to keep that from happening.  I think there is enough room on each side to tap in some holes for a hold down clamp.  If I do this I'll share some pictures. 

I'm new to tube type radios but I'm sure if I take my time and read the instructions I can work this thing.

I was cautioned by one person there to have the power supply checked first (good idea).  I'm wondering if there is anyone who rebuilds these with modern circuit boards to eliminate bad cap problems? 
Have three of the power supply's with the Heathkit shop's board on them they work great....and really quite easily done.   All information was on the websight that another party gave you.
 
An addition al caveat is the Cince Jones connector, if it works loose you can still lose the bias with all of the assorted problems..........sigh....experience......
Good luck and have fun.
