"Look at the tubes!"
Ummm, I hadn't thought of that. <hangs head in shame> :-)
Thanks Jim, This is a cost-is no object restoration on the car. They already
had the front panel of the radio re-chromed, and it looks terrific!
Definitely, getting a new set of lytics.
It's going up on the bench as soon as I clear off the Majestic 650 that I was
doing an estimate on. Other than the Pioneer tape deck, this has been a great
day!

the idea. ;-)
The weakest point is the vibrator, but at that age I would look at the
electrolytics and
change them even if they're not shorted.
