Very nice restoration!
I have several Fishers as well including a later 500C. Fisher ran the 7591's to their limit during the "most watts" war back in the early 1960's. As you did, I bias them cooler to last longer. 7591's are not a few dollars like they were when the 500C was made .

IF can wire size and Rubber mounts?
Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
