Yes I do, but mine is the console model called the Chinese classic, My grandfather purchased it new.
The (Dumont) chassis in those is nearly identical to your "doghouse" which is really called the "Rochester". I believe they both used the 12jp4 tube and the Mallory inductuner.
Note: You didn't happen to catch what the 2 Rochesters in the Buk auction sold for today did you?
One of my first questions to the forum is : Did Stromberg produce the Dumont chassis in their factory for Dumont Labs? Or did Dumont have their own assembly lines? I wonder though because even though it is clearly a Dumont chassis...Mine is loaded with Stromberg labeled Caps. Which leads me to believe those were assembled in a Stromberg factory.
