Emerson Ingraham Restoration Project

[jonboy55]

Here is an Emerson Ingraham cabinet project I'm finally getting to work on.

The cabinet needs to be glued back together. The top is off and a little warped. I need to figure out how to straighten it out. The top is multilayered like plywood. There is an Ingraham plaque on the bottom.

The chassis is marked as CJ217. It is different from the Riders schematic. The rectifier in the chassis is a 35Z5 instead of a 35Z4 and the output is a 50L6 instead of a 35L6. I know the correct tubes are in the chassis because the tube sockets are marked. Riders has a schematic marked CJ221 that is the correct schematic. I just think this chassis is just a later model with tube changes.

The book Machine Age to Jet Age (Vol. 1) identifies the radio as a "217" that came in 2 different wood styles.

Has anyone seen a chassis like this?
