It's located in Mankato Mn. I bet after it is restored it will get "Little House On the Prairie" real good :yes:

Aquarium!? Wine Rack!? I wish they wouldn't suggest re-purposing.

If the control layout looks familiar, that's because it's got a Philco 48-1001 chassis in it. The one I saw was even labeled Westinghouse model 48-1001 IIRC. No clone here, it's a Philco manufactured chassis loaded with Philco-branded tubes.

Interesting, I hadn't noticed that.

Here's the Philco, knob layout is the same, there's a fold down door also with those other controls behind it!

Looks like there's more than just the cross brace between the legs missing.
Looks like there was something that ran between the front & back legs,
down at the floor.

Learn something every day! Never knew Westy sold a rebadged Philco. I seem to recall one of these on here maybe a year or two ago, or something very similiar in style.
