I’m the owner of this set, but Mike who is far more experienced then myself is doing the chassis restoration.

Quoting Mike: “By doing these modifications it not only eliminates vacuum tube heat, it also eliminates a lot of unnecessary wiring that has the potential to cause arcing which of course is very undesirable.”

He said the wiring in the area is in poor shape.
