Hi Ron,
Thanks! It now has it's place in my library room, incidently sitting next to a 37-690! Looks way grander than the 690, but won't sound as good...!
I "reformed" the caps by slowly ramping up the voltage over several hours, and the radio does work, but it will require a tune-up. But that should be easy, as I don't think the chassis has been messed with. Very clean! Tubes still have the dealer decals on them, that match the dealer decal pasted on the back.
