Nice job Morzh, I do believe this will be a challenge that hopefully will be worth it. The dial cord is intact and not alot of visible damage underneath. The power transformer has continuity so it should be ok, is there any ballpark values I need to look for? Havent tried any power on yet, still checking for obvious problems. Speaker coils have some resistance but havent pulled it out of cabinet yet.
Thanks for your inputs, help is always appreciated.

Well, powering it up would be too good to be true, and I had that feeling.
