Olympic 6-608-110
#7

I've finished replacing the electrolytic and paper condensers. The electrolytics were all in a 4 section cardboard cased unit on top of the chassis with long leads going to various places below. Once the old paper condensers were replaced, there was plenty of room to replace that unit with separate electrolytics under the chassis. Here's what it looks like now:

Unfortunately, it is now too cold to do the refinishing of the cabinet, so that will have to wait until Spring. Today I ordered 80 pound braided fishing line which I will use to replace the dial cord. Once that is done, I can go on to alignment.
