That set sure cleans up nice! That cracked HOT and improper damper would be a red flag for me. Once you get to where you are doing your first power-up, the HOT cathode current would be one of the first things to check. If it runs high (more than 230mA) it can cook the flyback or red-plate the HOT until it melts the glass and looses vacuum (maybe what has already happened). a reading between 180 and 210mA is the safe zone for that. Take your time and enjoy this beauty, I'm finally getting my CTC-9 up and running after owning it for two years so there's noting wrong with taking your sweet time. It's better than rushing and breaking something LOL! Good luck and keep us updated.
