I got my capacitor checker in the mail today, and it was packed really well, they even wrapped the box in paper just like how they used to do it years ago!
This sucker is much bigger than it looks in the pictures (and its heavy!)
this thing from what I can see looks like its never been touched except for that old power resistor and an unmarked capacitor, all of the rest of the capacitors in this thing are the original Cornell-Dubilier capacitors.
The control panel on this unit has a couple of patent dates from 1931 on it.
the rivets that held the control panel plate to the rear cover plate were all sheared off, so I'm gonna have to re-pop rivet the control panel board to the back cover and grind the rivet heads flush like the originals were.
Some of these capacitors are going to be tricky to get to unfortunately and its kind of cramped inside this thing.
