Gee dude....I dunno if it is worth it for you and how urgent this resto is (who are you gonna show it off to, polar beare?)  - but if you want to pay the shipping to and from NJ plus parts (only if required) I could, (considering I have my own plate full plus I owe our own Kirk looking at a couple of his chassis) at a reasonable schedule look at it for you.
Any open coils etc....I am not crazy about those. But I could run the comparative plus take care of some especially hideous rework places.
I will use your box to ship it back so packing has to be reliable.
Consider that the shipping costs if packed properly could be more than the radio itself.
