Zenith 10S153

I found this Zenith 10S153 on Nextdoor.com a few miles from me. $50 from a downsizing retired couple that had it for 45 years. The knobs and 6L6 tubes are worth more. Cabinet poly refinished before that and more glossy than original but in perfect shape for display. Of course the cloth is wrong but that is for another day. The cans have been changed with a few others in 1977. Chassis came out for a new power cord, Deoxit treatment, new cabinet to chassis grommets from True Value, clean the backside of the glass, and a dusting. The beehive is there. British International 6L6GC tubes in the push-pull. Knobs are perfect. Shadowmeter works fine. And the factory service diagrams came with it. Works great picking up MW and SW stations and every interfering device in the house. Does anyone know the proper dial belt ID? This one is getting ragged. Changing it looks like a real adventure though.
