Yah, I've been reading about other Admirals for ages, but never found a local one until now.

The mineral spirits seem to have taken care of the smell, knock on wood.

A paper label in the lower cabinet says it's a model 24C15. Above the chassis label 20B1 is the following, stamped in orange ink:

Wired for 12LP4 - OC

This made me wonder who that helpful guy "O.C." was, until I read the manual and discovered that O.C. stands for "outer conductive coating" (aka aquadag). Evidently some brands of 12LP4 lacked that coating and thus needed a separate filter cap.

It's tempting to mess with this one a little, but I have other unfinished work. Time to quit accumulatin' and start solderin'.
