It can definately be restored. The most fun part will be undoing the kludge "repairs" done in the past.
Yes, you will have to remove the shaft to replace that belt. Ditto the shaft for the motorized tuning. Good thing these are simple to work with.
I'm pretty sure all the missing/broken parts are available, though a bit harder to find than Philco parts, which are a blessing as far as availability. At least you get to deal with the relative ease of working on a Brand Z set, with all that wonderful room underneath.
I don't envy you the task of finding a usable 6T5, though. OUCH!
