Looks like the nays have it as far as re-potting the bakelite blocks. Thanks everyone for sharing your thoughts.
Does anyone have advice about my question above as to whether a dim bulb tester could be used to recondition an electrolytic cap? My guess is that this is probably not a good idea as there is nothing limiting the current between the rectifier and the cap, which is what a series resistor would do. I did want to get people's thoughts though.
