Now I think it is ready.
I had some braided wire, so I used the braid instead of the broken one, connecting the tuning cap to the chassis.
All assembled:
I also forgot I still ahd the cap from the volume pot wiper not installed. At the same time I remembered I did not check the AVC resistor, which turned out to be over 6M vs 2M required; it also got replaced.
All done now.
Possibly will try power-up tonight.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
