Thanks for that input. This is only temporary and the chassis work and alignment is now finished. The only thing remaining on the chassis that is an issue is the dial cord and that can be done with it sitting in a normal horizontal plane. I plan to order some new dial cord and some springs to try on the main pulley. The springs I have on there now are from ball point pens and do not have enough tension. The cord slips on the shaft of the tuning knob and does not turn most of the time. Once in a while it will catch and tune the radio. It is frustrating. I have some leads on those parts.
Have fun!
