I finally had a few minutes free to pull the chassis and back of my acquisition and check things over. Very clean chassis, no rust whatsoever. Underneath only repair is the replacement of the AC line caps. There are signs of melted wax from the power transformer that I am a little concerned about, but everything looks okay otherwise. The speakers are darn near mint!!!! Also found about 100ft of heavy gauge antenna wire coiled up behind the back panel! Still has the two original 42 globe amp tubes which is pretty neat. One tube has a "New" 12-6-53 sticker on it, so this set was going for awhile. So, for now I did a quick clean up on the chassis and cabinet and it now resides in my house. Now! Back to my chores!
P.S. Why is it that there is ALWAYS at least one missing chassis mounting screw?!!!!!!!
