Craig, +1 on Eric's suggestion. That was all I did on mine other than the top. The top had a nasty water stain from presumably a plant watered on the top. I just couldn't get that to look like I wanted and the top is what one sees the most. That I took down and refinished.
You got a great deal on that radio! Mine was $190. The lady I bought it from has sellers remorse and has a standing offer of $400 to buy it back. With a pair of NOS 45s and other parts, it is about right, not counting labor. Not ready to sell it yet.
I did post on either the 111 or 112 on emptying out that big can and replacing the caps inside. I have not been able to find that thread yet and don't recall if the two chassis have different cans.
Shoot some pictures of your chassis and the can and maybe it will fire up some brain cells.
