Cool ! Kyle.
Yep. A re-cap will make the old girl feel better.  'spect that will or 
should include the electros.  Certainly do the electros if for no other 
reason than safety (unless you have a tester for the internal resistance and 
you test the original electros as "still in great shape").
Cheers
Don
