Which 500? There was a 500 tube mono receiver, at least two 500 tube stereo receivers and maybe a few 500 transistor 500 stereo receivers.
Personally I wouldn't pay $175 for the mono or transistor 500 working or not.
A 500 B or C stereo tube receiver in good cosmetic condition is worth more than $175 especially if it's in a wood cabinet but how much more depends on electrical condition too. A $175 500 with a blown power or output transformer isn't a good deal to me so it's buyer beware.
The chances that something that old would be working correctly and continue to do so with regular use are slim so I'd be thinking about the cost of a tech to go through it if your not capable and that could be a few hundred dollars or more depending on tubes and FM alignment.
