I am currently restoring a model 50 and a 51 in the near future, schematics list the ratings for the 5 caps. in the single metal box assy. but not color code on which wire goes to which capasitor in the case. Can anyone help with this? Thanks

See the TECH section here on Ron's site for the schematic. That metal-can condeser bank is also shown with values.
Re-stuffing these is easy.
