I don't want to give em a heart-attack. That is what would happen if I answered the door in the buff. Heck it almost scares me to death when I step out of the shower and look in the mirror.~Mancar1~

I've never seen a plastic one, but I do know that there ARE reproductions for various types of radios that aren't Philco. For example, I've got an Motorola AM radio which has the same type of radio bezel, cast aluminum just like the factory version, but it's not a factory. It's got rounded corners in the center cutout and is stamped by the manufacturer on the back. (Just wish I could remember right now who it was!) Here are a couple of pictures...it's kinda diry, needs to be cleaned up....but this is the only one I've ever seen:

My neighbor had that exact same radio in his '65 Rambler American, it's a tiny sucker.
