Has this Son of Ampzilla been restored?

[Robisme]

I have been unable to date this amp, and from what I read they stopped making this style in the 80’s.

The Panasonic FM caps in this guy were not produced till the 2000’s.

So, is the amp restored, or was it built in the 2000’s?

Thanks for any insight.

i don't know the amp but it looks like to-66 transistors were replaced with to-220.

Looks like it's been totally rebuilt and the VI limiters have been eliminated also.

I thought that as well.

Thanks. The owner dropped it off for a rebuild. I dont think it needs it.

If it works it should be good to go for a couple of decades.
