Last winter I did the chassis for this Marconi model 70, and I finally got the cabinet done.
I have not got the knobs refinished yet but,
I may get reproductions from Patrick Dufresne
Here are some photos
Dan in CalgaryHello Dan!
I just purchased this model radio from someone in Calgary! Ours is a little worse for wear but we plan to refinish it. We are looking for 2 new knobs, glass for the dial and a foot. Would you happen to have Patrick Dufresne’s contact info? I am eager for repros.
Thanks so much!I dug through my emails and found his email address.
It is
I suppose you can tell him I sent you . The knobs he made were very good.
On my radio I did not get the indicator for the loudness to work. it is the two circles on the dial.
It is just and indicator for the voltages going to the speaker.
It does not affect the playing of the radio.
Here is a link to what I had to say about it [on ARF], and a couple of photos
You can contact me if you have any questions, and I hope I can helpDan in Calgary.
Here is a link for glass.
https://www.inlineovals.com/round-convex-glass-1/I have found that most of the glass for clocks has more of a curve than the original glass they use on radios.
It just sticks out a little more.
as far as the leg is concerned ,they are VERY hard to get especially when you want one for a specific model
I hope this helps.
