First tip ... DO NOT plug it in again until you replace capacitors and any out of spec resistors. Plugging in a set full of old components is just asking for disaster to happen. By the way, what model are you commenting about ... no photos are attached. Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary

I merged your two "Finally out of the attic" posts together.

As Gary said replace the capacitors. It's probably new enough that it most are going to be ceramic. On the other hand the eletrolytic caps should be replaced if they haven't been in the last 20yrs or so. The picture of the screen tells me that there maybe an issue with the power supply as the raster isn't filling the screen. Definitely would measure the hv at the p/s and the boost line to see if it is within reason.
GL When my pals were reading comic books I was down in the basement in my dad's workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to figure out what all those squiggly meant. Circa 1966 Now I think I've got! Terry

Wow nice unit! As Gary said do not plug it in again before you or someone else goes through the whole console. You do not want to burn it up.
