For the wood, check out Howards Restore-a-finish, and Howard's Wax-n-feed. It made my crappy and worn looking cabs look damn near brand new.. well.. other than a few od the scratches.. .but a wax pencil helped with some of those..

As far as the rest, you'll need to test the tubes, watch out for any of the rubber coated wire, and replace the caps. The wires usually sluff off the insulator if you try and move them.

I need to buy caps, and I'm going to order cloth coated wire for the resto.. and I also got a tube tester.

I need to get started on mine, but got a few other projects to get done first.

I'll have to learn how to dial in the radio though after I get the rest replaced.

Hope you enjoy yours as much as I have mine even just looking at them.

Pictures?
