Some would argue that replacing all the transistors, capacitors and diodes on the boards with new equivalents would count as restoration related activity.No one "Restores" the original board.
If they are restoring the unit they change the electrolytic caps, those "hot rodders" will use film caps as appropriate as a film cap is better in every way and won't need to be replaced.
If they have an issue with DC Offset they change the differential pair.
Other than that there isn't anything to do to restore these amps.
Changing anything else would be hot-rodding the amp.
