OHM Fs are special and deserve preservation if at all possible.
It may or may not still be possible to restore original drivers to their original glory or something close enough, I just do not know for sure. I know OHM gave up on trying to do it years ago.
Restoring the surrounds may be the easy part. I have heard that the spiders in the voice coil tend to sag from gravitational pull and such over time and that affects the sound, etc. Also the foam material used in the driver rots. Just some things to be aware of that experienced OHM F repair shops should be able to address. I would not assume just any speaker repair shop can properly repair an OHM F Walsh driver. They are much different from conventional dynamic drivers.
