I am privileged to own a 1960 MGA that has been in my family since new.
While I still have the radio installed by the dealer (Johnny Lail, Glendale,
CA), it has not been in the car for a number of years. Now I'd like to have it
restored so I can return it to its rightful place in the dashboard. It's a
Philco, five pushbutton AM radio. All the knobs and buttons are there. The
chrome face would need to be replated and the plastic knobs/buttons would need
to be cleaned. I don't know if the radio works, but I assume it needs an
overall tune-up. There is a screwhead switch on the side of the radio that I
presume is used to switch it from positive to negative ground. My car is
positive ground, as supplied from factory. Can anybody recommend a vintage radio
restoration specialist for my radio? I live in Riverside, CA, but don't
mind shipping it anywhere in the USA.
