I cant wait to get her home!!

Until he get's the picture situation straightened out here's an artists rendering of what the set looks like.
It's somewhat crude but should give you a rough idea.

Very cool!
Is the chassis a Philco design or a clone?

That looks like a 16M91 Chassis which should be close to a CTC 15.
