This vintage Bendix Aviation Company Model 55P2U Superheterodyne electric tube radio is a rare find for collectors of vintage electronics. With its Bakelite material and brown color, it exudes a classic charm that would fit well in any vintage audio and video collection. The radio was manufactured in the United States and features a brand that is highly respected in the industry - Bendix.


As a used item, this radio has stood the test of time and still functions well. With its unique design and history, this Bendix radio would make a perfect display piece for any vintage enthusiast.


The radio has been power tested and is in general good condition. There's a crack in the front grill as seen in the photos; there are other minor blemishes as well. 

The sound quality is much less than modern radios.  There is a general, baseline power "hum" (rather loud compared to the signal) and stations are not clear.  The knobs work fine. The light comes on.
