I am undertaking the restoration of a Philco 620 radio, replacing the capacitors, renewing one weak tube, re coning the speaker, and refinishing the cabinet. What makes for a good restoration and what specific things do some of you who have been in this business for a while consider to be a good restoration so as to make the radio work like new?
Please be specific. Thank you
