[Eliot Ness]

No need for Zanax, but Like many here I admire Russ's work and have saved pictures of a couple of his finished sets to use as a reference when I get around to doing mine. 

As far as chassis work goes I also care how it looks and strive to make them look as original as possible.  I have a couple of sets that were bought already "restored" that I will have to de-modernize (if that is a word).  One is a Majestic treasure chest where they discarded the square cardboard box that housed the electrolytic caps.  I have located good pictures of an original that Alan Douglas owned and have the material to make a replacement that will be almost identical to the original. 

I also stock up on bags of used capacitors at radio meets so I can re-stuff them and replace the Chinese Yellow-Devils  (as I affectionately call them) in sets that have already been restored before I acquired them.  I also have a handful of sets I restored years ago that will eventually need to be re-visited and re-stuffed. 

I can understand someone not re-stuffing the original capacitors, but what gets me are the guys who strip everything they get their hands on and then glop it up with polyurethane.
