    '60 Wonderbar Radio Parts?

    Does anyone know who may have parts for Wonderbar radios? I need the light socket that plugs in the top of the unit. I can find knobs, faceplates, vacuum tubes, etc but nothing on the light socket that provides backlighting for the dial.

      Don't forget....

      to check your radio closely to determine where/how the dial light is missing (is it just the lamp fixture with bare wire swinging in the breeze? has the chassis been opened and the original dial lamp + cable desoldered?). Once you're at the scrap yard with a donor radio chassis in hand, you need to know how much interconnect cable attached to the lamp socket you'll need to bring your radio back to snuff....
