Use your soldering iron on the shaft of seized control. Apply heat down near where the shaft enter the pot. Use plenty of something like wd-40 on the shaft. This will eventually work the shaft free. Don't try to force it. Learned the hard way on this. Just finished two 66's- real nice sounding radios.
Good luck.
