Next came electrolytic capacitors.
This chassis was missing some of its original electrolytic cans. For those that remained, I cut them open and restiffed as many as I could with film caps. Unfortunately, there was one on the amp chassis (and, later, one on the tuner chassis) in which I had to use electrolytics as the film caps I had bought would not fit!
Here's one in which the film caps did fit:

The cans which were missing on the amp chassis were mainly single 8 uF caps. These were replaced with the motor caps Bob Andersen had recommended in another thread.
As for the 18 uF cap, this was restuffed with two Solen Fast 8 uF caps connected in parallel to equal 16 uF - close enough.
