Philco 97B: Restoration by a college student
#6

I say only replace resistors if totally whacked, and if there are tubular caps - replace not restuff.
Backelites - if not willing to restuff, drill the thin wires out of the eyelets and use the lugs as mounting points for new caps.

I only suggest this as Dsmith as a student and might have a deadline to meet plus other obligations.
This is why I wouldn't goad him towards authentic looks - the functional repair will suffice.

Unless of course he has the time and the desire, then sure.

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.
