Restoring a 1963 Admiral ctc-12 clone

I decided to tackle this set , I can't believe how many tubes are messed up in it with shorts/gas and grid issues , amazingly one 6GH8 reads ok , I've replaced most of them with nos tubes ,there was a 2av2 in the 1v2 socket , would that work ? it was bad anyway so I put a 1v2 in.

the circuit breaker was replaced but instead of being installed wires run out to one mounted to the back , also theres an electrolytic can with wires running from the original wires , it just lays on the inside side of the set , these are things I will have to properly repair.
when and if I get it up and running should I adjust the hv control for less voltage to anode so the fly doesn't get pushed as much as it could be ?
what should the anode voltage be roughly ? I used to know but don't remember , I don't work on color sets enough.
also the selenium on the convergence board should I be worried about it ?
there are so many orange drops in it that I wont touch them unless theres some kind of issue in that section.
anything I should be expecting or know about like the power diodes or other issues ? I don't see a degauser wire around the crt , just glanced at the schematic and don't see one
