Default Woodworm damaged cabinets

I have a number of radio finds with cabinets covered with woodworm holes.

The electronics and cabinet furniture are all intact so getting the radios working again should not be a problem.

But what is the consensus with regards to the cabinets? The cabinets still have strength but the hardwood and veneers are pock marked.

Many of the veneers are either loose or rotted at the edges.

I am wary of both introducing anything into my home that has had woodworm in it and putting too much work into anything that will not look pleasing at the end. In other words, something with so much repair that it no longer looks vintage with replacement or heavily repaired veneers or hardwoods.
