Just for fun, here are the before and after of the chassis rebuild.

Not much difference on the bottom except for the new AC power cord and the new fuse. I even restuffed the old caps with new ones and hot glued the ends...
Many thanks to all for the help - I wouldn't have been able to do this on my own!
