    Description

    For parts or repair only. Needs significant restorative work. "Junk radio" by some standards. Probably has some good parts remaining. The tuning dial, needle, and knobs appear to be in good  cosmetic shape. Tuning knob doesn't turn needle. Missing window. No power cord. Cabinet is coming apart at the edges, and must be handled with care. The top left and bottom right seams are loose. Finish is flaking off, scratched, stained, etc. Dirty looking top corners. Missing back panel, which would have had the model number on it. I believe this is model DQ-398, which dates to around 1941. Inside, I can see that the tuning dial piece is not screwed in, and it is loose. Electronics are as pictured. There is a loose wire coming out from the center of the antenna, and it isn't attached to anything at one end. Fully untested. There are two loose wood blocks inside, as pictured. There is a "Cabinet by Ingraham" sticker that came off the bottom, and is tucked inside. I might have missed something here. Dimensions are about 14" x 9.5" tall x 6". Please note that I have a  three business day handling time. I will use either FedEx or UPS for shipping, depending on your location.
