3035 W/3D USA

Great Cabinet.
The FM dipole is forced into the SW/AM antenna jack. Rear wood frame a bit fractured.	Record speaker connections.		Remove, protect and store the dial scale glass. It is made with "Unobtainium".	Glue and clap split wood.
This IF has a moving coil connected to the Treble control with a dial cord.	The moving coil is stuck.	There is a deposit of something hard.
	It is functioning well after considerable work.	You can see the dial cord that moves the IF plunger when the Treble control is turned.	The specified eye tube is an EM85. It is quite expensive and hard to find. I could not find one that I trust to use. I researched a substitute based on performance specs. The EM81 tube is a fine sub. The pin connections are different and the electrical specs are very close.
Seal up all the alignment controls from slipping. You can see the green candle wax and the old nail polish.	To seal the trimmers use Glypt or something that cracks easily off for the next alignment.	This tweeter is fine. Plays loud (for a Grundig). No repairs needed.	This side speaker had some dirt creating a Buzzing/rattling. A bit of dusting took care of that.	This is an STSP toggle switch that is wired in series with the eye tube plate. It is used to turn off or "blank" the eye tube. Eye tubes only last for about 1000 hours then fade out. Use of this blanking switch should extend the life of this hard to get tube.

This brass has a classic worn look. Some people would never modify the original finishes of an antique (100 yrs old). That would lower the value. And this finish is far from needing replaced. This radio was manufactured in 1955 to 1956 time frame.		This side grill cloth can be easily replaced by removing the four grill retaining screws.	The wood finish is in great shape. A rub down of Rejuvenating oil darkened the tiny scratches and removed any old wax. The front grill looks new. The New eye tube looks great too.	This is what it will look like when the lights are dim with a cool drink in your hands! Happy Holidays.

This is another 3055 with 3D sound USA Version. This case is in Excellent shape. Nothing needs done with the wood finish. The plastic parts were cleaned and treated with Glayzit. The Dial glass cleaned and the red line on the FM indicator repainted.
