Yes, in 20 lowboys surviving grillcloth is almost nonexistant.

Chassis is clean, 71a are present (e pensive tubes) and if the speaker is working (and judging by the grillcloth it at least has good cone) this alone is a 100 bucks right there. I would not think much.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
