Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, those kind of radios will never be worth a lot, not in the short term future anyways, and I doubt much in the long term, factories churned them out by the millions, few of them are what I would call milestones in engineering, most are mainly bland both in asthetics and technical merit, there are the odd exceptions I'm sure.
The problem with restoration is that it will never be original, refurbishing a woodie cabinet is like removing the patina off a bronze statue, it's just a testament to ones skills, as is servicing the electronics, if that's the crack then fine but they will never be original or worth a lot unless the receiver is comparatively rare or particularly sought after.
