Sony KV-4000 restoration

I recently received a Sony KV-4000 from ebay. I really like this set. The seller said it was in decent condition, but what a lie. The pushbuttons were shot (this seems common on sony sets like this), the right corner on the screen has a reddish area on it(looks like it needs to be degaussed), I heard internal arcing probably from the flyback, and the case looks like it's falling apart. Also, the power supply filter cap in the AC power supply is bulging as well.

So, I'm going to replace the pushbuttons, socket all the ICs, and replace/clean the controls. What else must I do to this set so it is reliable and operates nicely. The color is off as well, is thast due to bad components or off adjustments.

Thanks.

Jonathan
