Tom,
I never used the plastic yellow caps, yet. I'm still using caps I bought in the 90's. As for electrolytics I use new ones, not more than a year or two old.

These are some pictures of my progress on the Garod 1244G chassis.

Starting to look good, cool hard to find set!

The other night while shelving some sam's folders, I noticed Set 99A has a schematic of the Garod 1244G series sets in it. It's in folder number 5. I looked in some of my Photofact indexes and not one of them lists the Garod 1244G series chassis in 99A-5. The schematic in set 99A-5 is indentical to what I found in the Garod 1244G I recapped/repaired. There are no wiring errors like the Riders has for this set.

Just more pictures. I still have to find some knobs. The knobs on the
station selector might have been on the set when I got it ?
