I finally got back to this project. Trimmer F is the one that was broken and after cleaning up some of the rust, moving the broken piece to overlap the tuner frame and putting the trim screw back in, I was able to get pretty clear stations. The osc alignment is a little off but its one of the clearest and loudest sets I've worked on. Not a great fix but it will do for now.

The cabinet got stripped, toned, the black quarter inch stripe on the top added back and then lacquered and rubbed out. My repair of the missing veneer chip on the front is not the best but better than no repair I think. The back is a reproduction from Retro-tronics, mine was missing completely.
