Thanks, Ron. I'll remember that in case. I used two main items, and, elbow grease.
I used brass polish for less coroded areas, and, for downright rust, light sandpaper.
I used pledge on tubes, and, sandpaper to remover rust on power transformer. I repainted it with flat black rustoleum.
Now, I'm bummed out.
Tonight, I just finnished putting it back in the cabinet, and, hooked everything up with the intention of bringing it up on the variac. I was getting controls set up. Went to turn the tunning.
The thing isn't moving. It's making a noise, and,acting like the dial cord is now broken, or, dragging.
In any case, it's got to come back apart.
Darned, darned, darned, darned, darned!!!!

"Honey, did you warm the baby bottle on my 75 watt hi-fi again?"
"I left it somewhere, but, where?"
