Thanks all for the input!
I think I better go against my desire to see a picture on the screen now, and wait for all the capacitors to show up before I continue on. I'm happy to know this doesn't mean the flyback is suspect, at this point. In addition to the symptom mentioned above, the B+ is about 160, and should be 216, so fresh electrolytics and ditching the selenium rectifiers sure looks like it won't hurt.
Phil - your website is great, I remember reading about your TV several years ago when I used to go on rec.antiques.radio+phono. That's where I first became aware of this model. I printed the service manual from your website about a week before the TV arrived, to have an idea what to expect. I have to say I am surprised by how small everything is... even the controls are tiny.
I cleaned up the case with a toothbrush and warm water... it looks nearly new, although maybe it could be a bit more shiny. The only defect is the antennas are broken.
