May we have more information, please? Make, model number, how manny tubes, etc., would be of help. Reproduction grill cloth is made for several radios.
Is your speaker missing, or????
If cone is shot, it can be rebuilt.
There are likely other things you will also need to do, such as replacing original paper capacitors, and, old electrolytics in the power supply to make this radio safe to even plug in.....

There could also be other problems, such as rotted wiring, bad resistors, etc......
May we see some pictures?
Thanks.
