I've got a couple more questions about this radio, first, as you can see in my pictures that I posted that this chassis has a little bit of rust on it from being exposed to moisture for 20 years from sitting in an old farmhouse that the roof had collapsed on it 20 years ago, my question is what would be the best way to get rid of that rust?

Secondly this radio has 4 electrolytic capacitors in it and all 4 of those electrolytic capacitors are of the dry type, my question is, would I be safe keeping those in the radio and running it with those in the radio?

I'm asking because I've read from various sources that the dry electrolytic capacitors don't go bad because they don't have anything inside them to dry out and fail like a traditional wet electrolytic does.

Thanks for your help.
