I love a mystery! Like the shelf between the chassis and the speaker: just for stiffening the cabinet? Maybe the "bandswitch" is really for local/distant? Three gang tuning condensor but where's the RF tube on a five tube set? 175Kc IF stamped on one of the xfrmrs.

If you wanted to ditch the tuning eye as not being "authentic" (whoa: what IS authentic on this one?) it would take reveneering the front panel. OTOH somebody "updated" this set so it's part of its history.

I think what I would do first is to trace out the wiring and draw the schematic, see if it makes sense, while getting familiar with it.
