I wouldn't power that thing up w/o a complete recap first, if you want to make sure you keep the power tranny, 80 and 45s in working order.
Tubes are best had from radio guys rather than audiophiles or AES if you want cheap prices. Last 45s I bought used were $20, from a lifelong radio collector with a basement full of tubes and gear. I've recently seen 80s sold for 10 bucks. And there are a number of smaller dealers besides AES that are cheaper. But you probably won't have to replace tubes.
