Not bad at all.
I'd just lightly touch up the scratches to match the newly revealed "cleaned" tones.
Also stealthy re-glue any wood joints to make it sturdier to handle the chassis weight once re-united.
The rear arch supports are notorious for being loose or missing.
I think repros are available for the support.
I'd think you should be able to correct the control knob set too.
Nice find. See Ron's Galleries for cabinet pics and knob styles/sizes.
