Default taking apart an old oscilloscope - danger?

It's not dangerous, but there are those of us who think gutting a Tek scope
is sacrilege. Even if they don't work, they are rarely beyond repair. Gut
an RCA or Eico scope.

hey, i have gotten an old (1950's) tektronix type 310 scope that i want to
gut and use for a pc case. i don't want to kill myself, so is there
anything i need to do or be aware of? It does not work and has not been
used for at least 20 yrs, so would components still be carrying a charge
and if so what do i do about them. as it is not working, keeping parts
intact is not an issue...

i've attached a few pics

thanks for any advice.
