I got this thing mainly because it looks so cool and the guy said it worked.  Power cord was rotted so I replaced that and removed the death cap.  Plugged in a solid state rectifier and brought it up slowly on the variac.  Passed audio starting around 60v and I got it up to about 105v before one of the can caps started getting warm.  Definitely needs a recap.  Never going to do anything with it, so passing it on.  PM me for more photos and details.
