The 76 has seven tubes whereas the 96 has nine tubes, the 96 also had a box shaped tube shield mounted at the back of the chassis. Sets this early don't use electrolytic capacitors they use large paper capacitors for filter capacitors, they are mounted in a potted metal can at the front corner of the chassis. I haven't got around to working on my model 96 yet but that potted can has a terminal board in the bottom so I have heard that it is possible to cut the internal leads off and remove the can without disturbing the chassis wiring.
