Here is a picture of my restored 38-2 (11tubes) http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/phot...9633qtfvVL and the electrolytics have been resuffed with new electrolytics but the chassis still retains the original look. Some people just take the old electrolyic off and pop a replacement somewhere under the chassis but stuffing them is not hard to do and Chuck's site give good tips on how to do that. I have each of the following models 38-1,2,3,116 along with the 37-11 even the low tube count models 38-3 are nice performers.
