Most of the cabinetry of that era will be finished in lacquer. My '67 owners manual even varifies that. If the finish is not totally gone or really patchy, many times a product called 'Restore-a-Finish' works well to 'reamalgamate' the existing lacquer.Basically it's a mixture of solvents like lac.thinner and zylene that dissolve the finish enough so you can move it around and even it out without losing the patina.
It's available at most good hardware stores and comes in different tones for different woods. I've used it on some of my wood and it works very easily and the results are good.
