Yes, the chassis is done, with one exception. The motor drive switch was bad so I advertised for a replacement. A fellow said he had one so I bought it but when I went to install it I discovered it was from a 12 tube robot dial, not a 9 tube. These switches are designed to mute the audio while the motor is engaged. The 9 tube is a single audio output while the 12 tube is a P-P output and the muting function operates differently. The motor part works dine but it won't mute the audio so I'm on the lookout for another switch.
I used my Ferret test speaker to test and align the chassis.
