Default FT : fisher 500C anyone?

Hi , Everyone.

I once tought of restoring this fine receiver to its former glory. This
FISHER 500C was given to me a few years ago , it is in very decent
condition for it's age but would benefit from a power supply
refreshment I have all the parts for it as per Sheldon Stokes rebuild
plan but never got around in doing it . It has the original tubes , (
mainly Telefunken and RCA ) and much to my surprise the output tubes do
very good on emission test . (that is if my tester is right) the
gentleman I got it from dit not use it much from what he told me , you
never know the truth on these matter though .

Here's the deal , If I could swap it for an integrated 6BQ5 stereo amp,
I am aiming for a dynaco sca35 (I would use the transformers) and a fm3
tuner , for wich I will possibly trow a little money ... little . I
would pay for shippment in continental america (north) . This receiver
weight 48 pounds , so it is not negligible .

Anyone interested in getting a 500C ?
