Judging from the nice under-chassis condition, I would say salt spray
wasn't a problem. Rodents were the culprits. They were able to enter
the casing, but couldn't get below. Here's more pix. I'm sure the tube
sockets will need close attention, and who knows what I'll find inside
the IF and RF cans? That is, if I decide to attempt a restoration.


I'd say it was a mild case of salt...air at least. The underchassis
condition is a function of it's greater protection. The parts exposed
to the air look extensively (although not severely) corroded. If it
were just plain humidity and age, the underside would probably be similar.

Love the speaker grill!

It looks like this has more problems than salt spray. What is the
inside like?

Have fun with it.
