If you don't already have it, you can download a schematic & owner's manual from:

You should replace the old capacitors for safe and reliable service:

For correct knobs, check with Alan Jesperson, http://www.gn4radios.com/ . He's a Zenith guy and may have a junker/parts set lying around, or be able to supply reproductions.
