Philco 38-15 caps
#10

Atco

Only in case you want to do that, this is "a little closer to original" measure that does not require you to go to extraordinary efforts (like some folks here do when they actually replicate old resistors) but still bring the chassis a bit closer to what it used to be like.
In case of quick and dirty approach, old caps may be disconnected and new soldered instead, like backelites can have the leads coming from inside cut, and then the new caps can be soldered to the remaining posts as the holders.

Personally I restuff backelites and lytics.
