I have removed all the valves, being careful to lever off the top cap clips by prising a thin screwdriver under the clip and between the cap to save stress on the cap and wire in case the cap came loose.
All the 13 volt valves, 9D2, 15D1, 9D2, 2D13C, heaters test good, at around 11 ohms, and the OP valve, a KT41 in this case also tests as heater good. The tuning indicator is a Cossor 3184 and this looks a bit dark on the inside of the glass, but hopefully will still work.
The bad bit found so far (apart from the missing PSU and speaker) is the tuning dial film disc has been rubbing on the metal dial backing and scored a line all the way round it. It is still readable with a bit of imagination but will detract a bit from its looks when working.
It looks like someone has been in the underside of the radio at some point in the past.
