Tektronix 465 Oscilloscope

I've got this instrument from ebay in late 2014 but till now I had no time to take care of it.
The instrument presents some nasty folding on the case due to the impact with something of really hard and a some minor scratches all around. Small rust signs on the knob screws and a lot of dirt to be removed.

From a preliminary test it seems to be in a working condition, all functions seem to be present, but there are a lot of unreliable contacts in almost all switches and knobs.
So, the real disease is the age, like it is for me.
