I´m now on the stage of obtaining all the parts I need. I ordered the F+T caps from Ask Jan First in Germany, great service! I will also change some of the drifted resistors.
By my question is about the mains connectors. The mains fuse is rated 2A, and I found the 3pin bulgin connectors nearby rated at 250V/3A. Wouldn´t that be enough?
JonSnell, when you hinted me about the Bulgin connectors at Ebay, was the 5A model because of the era it´s from or because of the power rating? I see the newer 3A connector is not connected with screws like the older 5A model.
Just as an addition, when I brushed the dust of from the chassis with a toothbrush I´m now amazed how well this amp has preserved! No rust anywhere and very clean all around. Thanks for everyone´s help so far!

A bit late to the thread. But, can you tell me if the wooden head cab has a shield plate on the inside where the amp goes?
Hey! I appreciate the interest on this!
The project has been on hold ever since due to life and lack of proper working space. But it is becoming more relevant once again.
I did purchase the original Bulgin power sockets, but I am not sure if I should use them as I have read some rumours of them not being safe "anymore". But I have also searched and found information those should still be fine.
I will be posting more details on the way.
Not late at all.
I am not sure what you mean. Do you mean the bottom of the wooden enclosure where the amp chassis rests on? The wooden back plate? Can you elaborate more?
