Thanks for all of the comments. Myself, I generally enjoy tackling some pretty ugly messes and get the chassis and cabinet back as best I can hopefully saving the radio from being gone forever. They're not rare or especially valuable, the fun is in bringing them back to life. So I'm going to use modern caps and resistors that no one will see and hopefully have the radio looking and performing well. As I've been removing the dumbbell resistors I'm checking them and so far six of seven ran from 15% to 49% so I won't be saving any.
