My Attempt at Predicta Restoration

something about that pot on the extrerm right does not look right, Although the mounting arangement seems correct for the type of pot used. Odd. just a guess but the resistor is prob a higher than called for value and the pot is lower than called for. that way less voltage drop across the pot so a lower wattage pot would work (but the range would suffer as well so the fixed resistor would have to be pretty close to the correct total required value).
