501noob

I'm a beginner here so any advice or help would be much appreciated. I saved some 501s from going to the dump that were my father in laws. They are functioning, but the sound leaves a bit to be desired. To start one speaker is worse than the other. It has more cracks and seems to be cutting in and out or volume is fluctuating as if its a power issue. The other seems ok but definitely needs a clean up. Both are visually in great shape and have been sitting in the original boxes for decades. I'd like to get them sounding better and fully functional but not sure what I should be looking for. I removed the grills (used a screw driver and pried gently) and was able to snap some pics. If anyone has experience or recommendations on what I should be looking for or what to fix I'd be much appreciated. They will definitely need refoamed as you'll see in the pictures.
