Mounted the tone ctl, and rebuilt the volume pot.
This one required drilling out the rivets to expose the power switch. I cleaned it (photos later), it was covered with soot. Now is fine.
The rivets had enough protrusion left to them for me to reuse them; seems sturdy. Also cleaned and lubed the resistive part.
The last one- the grommets. I will have lunch and then ho yo Lowe's trying to find something I could use.
I decided to try the electrolytics that are there now. They show good capacitance so there's hope.
Oh...and the tubes check.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
