I pulled the chassis out to have a peek at what I got myself into. Looks pretty good. Don't think it was a mouse house but there is a little rust here and there. Checked the output transformer and it good! Spkr needs a recone vc rubs pretty badly and has silicone on the spider. Although the chassis does that an extra IF transformer. Checked the original and it seems to be ok resistance wise. Don't think the shadowmeter works (see pic) and the dial drive needs some rubber work. Low gear works but high not so much. Seems to have been serviced before but those parts have gotten some cracks and flat spots. Will probably check to tubes and see how many 77's and 78's it needs.
Not quite sure when I'll get started on it but just wanted to do the quick survey to see what it needs. The cabinet had a major problem (tried to flip it's lid) so it needs a piece made to reattach the top to the side.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
