After a little more work...
It's slowly beginning to look like the underside of a radio again. I removed the 1st IF transformer as I plan to grind away the lip which once held a strain relief for the AC cord in place, and use a rubber grommet there instead to protect the new AC cord which will be installed toward the end of the rewiring project.
I've installed one new capacitor so far, and no, I did not restuff an original cap. These chassis are already so jam-packed that this one will only benefit by having a bit more free space from not restuffing old caps.
You can see by looking at the schematic below how far I have progressed in the rewiring. Highlighted areas indicate new wiring and components.
More to come...
