Welcome to the phorum! This is a beautiful set, with what looks like very little cabinet issues, and an unmolested chassis. If you didn't live so far away I'd be negotiating with you myself! If it were mine, I would...
1. NEVER plug it in again until the entire unit is recapped and recarboned.
2. Order a schematic package from Chuck Schwark. His information is invaluable!
3. Get on your knees and thank the Lord that it is cloth wiring, and not old rubber!
This will not be an easy project, but will be well worth it in the end. Don't expect this to get done in a couple of weekends either. You have a daunting project here, but have the potential to have a true showpiece when you are done. I also agree with the others in the opinion of getting a transmitter instead of modifying the chassis for an input. That being said, good luck. Take care, Gary
