I removed the tube sockets to fit LEDs, although now I think I'm not going to use any LEDs. I also removed many transistors and the 1/4" jack. Parts have been test fit in the enclosure.

Holes in the rear panel mostly drilled, including an array of holes so I can file out the hole for the power switch.

The first batch of transistors (2N5087) I sorted by hFE for purposes of ensuring the parts in the left and right channel are as identical as possible.
