Strewth Gary, apart from it's dilapidated condition, the under-chassis layout of that AD65 is a real rat's nest! What a contrast with the cleverly though out chassis on the A22, which I think is the best of the bunch of the round Ekcos. Thanks for pointing me to your BVWS Bulletin article in Winter 2008 of the total stri-down and refurbishment of an Ekco AC97 (AKA 'Cyclops and 'Robot') - a much more stylish and sought after set than the A77, but sharing many similarities and posing similar problems to the AC77. The article will prove invaluable to me if I do go ahead.
Thanks for your cautionary tips about wire gauges, coatings, and likley condition of old stock.
