There was the usual "grease and oil" where needed
( I tell friends: "If you don't have to oil it, 
                       it ain't a real radio!" )
and De-Ox-It on the switches and tuning cap contacts.
Power-on for bake-in and check the dyno and other parts
for any excess heating.  IIRC, I replaced two bad resistors 
and two bad bypass caps at this stage. 
Than an alignment and it's worked well ever since.
Some cosmetics and here it is in the  SCR-287 display 
at HamCom last June:
