Do the obvious thing, check for cracked solder joints.  Might need caps too.

Does the horizontal pot effect the picture at all when you try to adjust it?
(the pot itself could be bad or broken)

well I put a cap kit in and seem on the underside of the board that there is many wires jumped around to make contact. should I just buy a new chassis or try to finish repair?

Those jumped wires are factory done.  Perfectly normal.  Finish repair.

Hope he didn't just ditch it.....
