If you are planning on playing this radio to any extent, I would at least recommend changing the coupling caps connected to the control grids of the 6L6G output tubes. They are marked 35 (.03 uF) and 43 (0.1 uF) on the schematic. Any leakage through these caps will throw off the DC bias of the 6L6's causing them to draw excessive current. This could cause a runaway condition which could take out the tubes, output transformer and eventually the power supply.
You can restuff these two with modern film caps if you want to retain the original appearance.
