I would not remove it, ware indicates active use not a shelf ornament.  I have a transmitter and receiver that I bought as soon as I could afford it.

The frequency dials and all controls have the same ware because I used it until I finally got a solid state transceiver that could match the performance.
------------------

You could find a front panel and new controls,  that will bring it back to like new look....
