"Nap" the problem with subbing a Wurlitzer amp is twofold; it provides the power to the selection and robotics systems and, in the case of the mono machines, the Cobra requires the oscillator native to the original amp.
Those amps use a printed board for their voltage amp stages and are really easy to rework. There are some capacitors outside of that section and replacing the filter cans is a little more challenging -but nothing that can't be handled. A "cap kit" will cost less than $70 or-so and even if a few tubes are needed, the cost won't go much over $100, so think it over.
