Success. Thanks! I installed a 158 bulb and it's plenty bright for my rural area. I cleaned and lightly greased the sliding surfaces inside, too.
Don't hate me right off for paying..............$5.00..............for this radio at an old electronics parts shop a few months ago. I knew what it was the moment I saw it. It even came with one original knob pair (seen in the last photo). I had a nice set of period-correct knobs for it that are now installed. I plan to remove the newfangled AM/FM FJ60 radio from my '78 FJ40 and install this AM radio in its place.
