I don't think that's accurate. All the data thus far points to the tubes being of the right type and in the correct spot for their intended purpose, the only one with a date code later than about 1954 was the 1B3GT HV rectifier. All the others look to be period correct, though a few aren't even connected underneath.

It would be interesting to see date codes, tube mfrs...

I'm still in the process of figuring out a way to get all that data into one picture, I don't think it's gonna work. Too much info, it would clutter up the photo. Instead I labeled all the tubes with their type, and perhaps I will create a spreadsheet with all the other info linked by tube number (V23, V24, ect). The chassis has labels printed on it, so it should be easy to figure out.
