STAYGOLD Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Hello, I would like to figure out what vehicle this Philco radio was original for. I have pictured the dial as well as the number stamped into the radio box, reading "U43293". Any help would be great. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drwatson Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I see your control pictured in my book of period "Philco Transitone" schematics. Text said its for Models 805,6,7,8,9. It further said it fits "all autos" of the mid-late 30's. So it looks like it's universal fit. Some are shown under dash, then there was a piece of hrdwr to mount it on the steering column.

Guest Commodore Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Some Philco Model 806s were specially built for Nash and called models T-7 and T-8. See link. The model ID tag for your radio is located inside the radio, so you need to take the cover off to see which model you have.Philco Model 806 Auto RadioSee this Ebay listing for location of ID tag. It's shown in the photo on the right.1935 36 37 Vintage Philco Transitone Am Radio Stereo Underdash Wood Knobs | eBay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MargaritavilleBuick Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 I just learned that this unit may be 12v. True? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
