Jim are you sure that isn't a model 66? Usually the model 66 has grille cloth as shown on your set; the 60MB's cabinet is identical but the cloth is a strange mottled combination of black and gold, unique to the 60MB:

In any event, watch for the usual pitfalls: bad antenna and/or oscillator coils in addition to the usual necessity of replacing all paper and electrolytic capacitors, and replacing all resistors more than 20% off tolerance.
No Ron, not sure if its a 60MB or 66. The top of the paper tag on the inside has been ripped off so no concrete model number to go on. Other than the grille cloth is there any other way to distinquish between the 2?
