So here is another project I have landed myself to do, and on initial inspection the dial cord broken and off, all the rubber covered wiring needs replacement, one or two dial lamps u/s, electrolytic capacitors look as if they have been replaced at some stage as one marked radio spares, the other too small for the chassis mount clip, all wax caps (axial ones) will need replacement and most likely leaking electrically like the electrolytic ones, one knob not matching the other three, rectifier looks as if it has had a hard time as covering scorched but all the valves test ok and clearing the usual amount of dust revealed that the paint work on the chassis is like it was in 1944. Here are some pictures of the chassis.
More to follow
