This is the US version of the dial for exactly the same set, except for a somewhat different audio de-emphasis network after the FM ratio detector.
The low voltage electrolytic capacitors in the FM decoder are usually dry after 40 years since manufacture. Decoder works very well if they are all changed and the circuits retuned with an appropriate signal generator.

The white plastic sheet behind the dial was yellowed and broken. I found white styrene at Ace hardware that was easy to cut and looks great! Notice that is is made in The Netherlands, just like the radio!!!
Using silicone RTV to eliminate speaker "rattle" present on both of my Pallas stereos. A thin coat on the surrounds is all it takes.
