Ok, I got the radio, and the cabinet in in really nice shape, but the wiring is atrocious inside, it has dry rotted rubber wiring inside and the original power cord was cut at some point in time. It has it has its grid leak resistors intact, the 2 megohm and a smaller one of unknown value as the part of the original label that said the value of the resistor was missing.
It has its original speaker intact which had its original grille cloth replaced at some point in time and the speaker cone is torn in several spots including a spot where there's a small section of the cone missing (see pictures below).
It also has all of the correct tubes in the unit, which are all RCA or RCA Cunningham branded tubes.
I hope this unit will be fairly easy to bring back to life.
I found the Rider's manual for this radio but its kind of hard to decipher what's what in it because it doesn't give values for the capacitors or resistors just part numbers which doesn't even have a crossreference chart on the manual to tell you which part is which.
