I lived through that era. Those auto sets in console cabinets looked funny as the dickens. There were quite a few different auto sets that were sold off that way. During the war, they were the only thing you could buy if your old reliable went belly-up.

I've always had a sort of liking for the '42 Chrysler set in a chairside cabinet. I have one that hasn't been restored, and I expect that it'll sound pretty good. It's the 8 tube Philco set that Chrysler used in their cars from 1941 thru 1948. It's one of my favorite auto sets.
