Welcome to the forum. You will find many folks willing to help you restore your radio to a safe and functional level, and more help for the physical appearence. First off Don't plug it in. Take a few pictures, and post them here, and indicate your skill set, as can you read a schematic and solder. THat would be a help for us to guide you.
