It's hard to tell just from pictures of the chassis. I don't see anything broken, but if the picture tube is good (I see no brightner, an aftermarket device used to squeeze a few more hours of service from a worn out tube), if the flyback transformer is good, all you should need to do is replace all the wax paper caps and the electrolytic caps. I don't see a power transformer, so this may be a "hot chassis" design. Safe enough in normal use, but be careful when troubleshooting it. Also such designs used selenium rectifiers, which are usually ready to fail today, as their lifetimes have run out by now. Likely, the tubes are okay, tubes not used in equipment or on teh shelf will last forever, but wax paper caps go bad used or not.
