I think I'm going to call the pushbutton assembly good for now.  It's not as clean as I'd like it to be but it's far better than it was.  I figure the more I mess with it the more likely it is that I'll cause some sort of damage that would be difficult or impossible to correct.
   

Actually, there's already some damage.  I don't think I caused it but it's possible.  The two wires marked in the following image were loose on the ends of the inductors.  I touched them with a little solder and they now seem attached, but still don't look right.
   

I have some questions for Warren since he's done one of these, but all input is welcome.  Warren - did you remove the tuner sub-chassis?
   

It seems like it would be easier to work on the caps in there with it removed.  Plus, I want to replace the mounting grommets.  I've identified and documented 13 wires and a capacitor that would need to be disconnected.  I figured I could wrap some tape around the main dial cord pulley so I don't have to rewind that.  It looks like it has an e-clip holding it in.  I could take that out and store it with the rest of the dial cord assembly until it's needed. 

I know I had another question for you but can't think of it now.  It'll come to me and I'll make another post.

Thanks!
