Wow ! You have quite a job on your hands. Once you have the chassis bead blasted clean, you might consider having it plated rather than painting it. I think the grey ones were mostly zinc plated or galvanized steel. Best of luck on this project. I look forward to your future progress both here with the cabinet, and in the electronic section for the electronic restoration.
