    1958 Wonderbar Radio

    Can anyone confirm this radio is a 1958 wonderbar. I think it is, however want to confirm before I spend the time and money restoring it. I would hate to find out it is another c1 year model.

    Read the numbers on the transistor on the back of the radio under the part number DS-501. The last two digits are the build week and the first one or two numbers are the build year. The push bar lettering looks black so don't get your hopes up.

    On the other hand, 58 thru 60's all look the same on the outside (white lettering excepted). There are circuit variations on the inside but who would know that or even see it... Confirm that the knob set is correct and enjoy... The chrome looks nice. The rest not so much so... It must have slept outside for many years.
