Say again:

Replace each and every electrolytic and wax capacitor before carefully powering up slowly with a variac or dim bulb tester.

Okay, Im going to build a dim bulb tester and start recapping.
Im slightly concerned that ill get heavily invested into this and then not be able to fix the issues to get it working again, but so far the help ive received here is making me feel a bit better about this.

Thanks for all the help so far. will report back once we get to phase 2.
