cost of restoring admiral bakelite television

[Kamakiri]

You've got $10-$20 in electrolytics alone in that set, not even counting the wax bypass caps. Then, on to the Sprague bumblebees which are rated at or around 1 kV.

And I've yet to find one place that carries everything I need, in the brands and styles I prefer to use.

Also take into account that Admiral has the same dual chassis setup that I have been attempting to avoid restoring for the last decade on an Admiral Chinese cabinet combo set sitting in my finished basement. More chassis, more parts.
