C59 bulged from what voltage? The voltage at C59 should be limited by R58 137 ohms.
It sure sound like it's open between C59 and R58 These two are in parallel. The voltage on one should be the same as the other.
Resistance from HV CT to chassis is 0 ohms. (this is wrong) It should be 137 ohms
-C59A is 0 ohms? This sounds good, The neg side of C59 should be at chassis ground
edit(this is my mistake the pos side of C59 should be at chassis ground)
Voltage across C59A is 500 VDC (this sounds a little high like the tubes are not loading the power supply). Is the radio making any noise?

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!RESISTANCE IS FUTILE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
