Sorry for not following up sooner guys just finished up a huge job that had me really tied up Now i have a lil breathing room again i can get back to finishing this Valco up.
A little back story on this amp. A while back i did a little spring cleaning and took a trip to the dump and the guy that worked there saw an old amp case i was throwing away and said "thats the second one today, hey ya wanna see something ?" he goes into the bin and pulls out the Valco , it was dripping wet it had been raining for 2 days and it looked as if it had been left out that whole time. the plywood on the bottom of the cab was so wet it started to de-laminate and the paper speaker cone was wet to the touch . I removed the speaker as soon as i got home and placed it face down on some newspaper and let the whole thing sit for a few weeks before i even touched it again. i brought it outside on sunny days a few times to help dry it out.
Here are a few shots the day after i got it.




I got the 10uf caps installed, i snipped off the tabs on the old can cap and soldered the new caps to them and grounded them on the base plate of the old can . it seems to be working really well, sounds great! I'm really amazed the speaker survived the soaking.
