Personally I have not had too much trouble with caps in 60's TV's but have had more trouble with caps in public address amps and stereo amps of the same time period. Most trouble with caps in 60's tv's has been bad electrolytics.
However when I have something on the bench from the 60's or before I like to replace any old paper or electrolytic caps and selenium or old silicon diodes, especially if it is a unit for a customer. Even if the unit works now with the old parts, replacing these common failure items helps ensure the unit will stand up for long service into the future...these old components like electrolytics or paper caps continue to degrade as time goes on.
