You could power it up with just new filter caps but it wouldn't work right, and a couple of those BB caps could blow up while you are testing it (not as big a deal as it sounds!) Might be good to do it in sections, trying it after each one. That will help you localize any mistakes you might make, and also teach you what each section does.
Thanks Bryan wrote it down and I will check those sites after I get a list ready.

Man I pulled one of the chassis sections tonight, uh wow there are more than a few capacitors involved in this overhaul.... I can DO it..... I think....
