Radiohenry,

On mine, the chassis is rather dark, though I haven't gotten around to trying to clean it up yet. Also all of the labels on mine (both inside the chassis and outside) look burnt. I had assumed they were actually burned or overheated somehow.

In all of my previous restorations, I just disconnected the electrolytic cans and added new caps underneath. I decided to give restuffing a try this time. I'll see how it looks after I finish before I decide to do any others. It is definitely more work.

How many people restuff vs. hide underneath? Curious.
