Well folks, its working a treat.
All bands tuning in well, FM is nice and mellow.

Rustoleums Antique Cream did the job for the case.
Rear knobs are 3d printed then sprayed cream.

About 15 components needed replacement, mainly caps and a few resistors.
Valves were all good, lucky me.
Original flex is in good shape so I'll keep it.
Toothpaste polished up the perspex and removed light scratches.

All in all a nice little set.

Thanks for the help👍
