Some really nice work jcassity! It amazes me how similar the chassis is to my 47-1230. I'm watching this closely I agree with your assessment of the caps...I don't know why I ordered axial caps, but I made them work.
I'm new to restoration so I may be wrong, but I'd get rid of that wire nut! If it's like my radio, you should be able to find an unused tab on a terminal strip to make that connection. I did that with the connections on pin 8 of the rectifier tube...the pin was getting pretty sloppy from all the connections over the years so I just ran a jumper from there to an unused tab.
