Figured I'd update this... yes, everything in the radio looks great other than the wiring. I noticed the dial string slipped off, so, this may be why it stopped getting use.

But... now that it's spring, I've found an excuse to put off the many hours of re-wiring ahead of me and instead focus on 2 cabinet projects. Already posted about the 38-8 I'm refinishing (I need to stop getting consoles...) in the cabinet section. So I'll revisit this when bad weather hits.
