determining model of Zenith 1941 console
9/21/2008 9:34:51 PMBrian
The Chassis number is 5808, but I cannot find any model number anywhere on the radio. The factory tage has Chassis and model number on top of each other but 5808 is the only number identified.

There is a metal tag with perhaps a serial number: 632303. It appears to have 5 tubes- so that's a start

Can anyone help on this? I am trying to sell it.

Thanks

Based on chassis number, and serial number, I believe the console model is: (5808 8S463 1940 Console) found this on grillcloth.com site. Is there an s before the serial number? If so, then the above is listed is correct.

Thanks you to both gentlemen. It appears I had the year wrong, I have confirmed all three numbers- you are correct.
