Thanks, Bob - and thanks to you, I finally worked up the courage to try using rottenstone to rub out the cabinet which this chassis is going into.
And thanks to all for the comments.
Arran, I don't know who came up with the idea of opening up those chassis first, Bob A. or John Goller. John described this method to me a few (or was it several?) years ago. I have simply chosen (so far) to not work on them in that manner. Nothing wrong with it; in fact it may be better than keeping it all together (save for the RF unit). It would certainly simplify replacement of capacitors and resistors.
And this chassis really does not have that much rust. Believe me, if it did, I would definitely do something about it.
