Congratulations! I recently finished up a 10-S-669. They sound great with the P-P 6V6 output. The real bear with them is the rubber wiring. Be very careful with it. I ended up replacing 27 rubber wires in the chassis plus all 8 in the tone control harness. Make sure all the tube shields are there. I see some nicks in the photofinish, you can touch them up using colored magic markers, mostly black and brown.

This is the original finish. All I did was clean it. At the time the original style grille cloth was unavailable so I substituted.
