You do indeed have a Globetrotter C6 16. They are very nice radios, as I restored one about three years ago.
Your cabinet is in very good condition so it won’t need to be stripped.
When I got mine it was in bad shape, and that is part of the challenge and reward of doing these radios
I would not suggest it to be your first restoration , do the Philco first.
I can suggest a book on radio restoration, that many others have suggested.. it is” The elements of radio”
by Marcus and Marcus. It is good reading at a layman’s understanding.
Here are some photos of the one I used to have.
You can buy your capacitors at ”Just Radios”.
good luck.
