I'm gonna guess Westinghouse Columnaire. I think the chassis is an RCA?

Took me a while to find a picture of a Columnaire. I think you're spot on:

Looks like a pretty old chassis (v. early 30s?) if the clock is electric, it may be one of those cool "spin to start" ones.

I dipped into my reserve 'cabbage' and am heading out into the cold night to check it out. I'll put on my best poker face

Yep. Weird, but very cool looking IMO. It's still out in the garage so I haven't had a chance to examine the clock in any detail. I just found out it should have had glass over it so I'm sure it's nice and dirty and maybe corroded

I just started a new thread in this forum (Westinghouse WR-8) with a bunch of pictures.
