I have repaired/restored thousands of radios of this description and without any coil or transformer issues and like Aaron said a used tube or two I would see about a $250-$300 repair for this one. Cosmetics other than running the vacuum through it would be extra and if the cabinet needs to be refinished that would be extra as well. I do two or three of this type repair a week and I find major problems are very rare so that price should be close.
