Your measurements seem about right. As long as neither reading drops to zero ohms as the tuning cap is rotated over its full range, then the cap plates are not shorting and its not the problem.
Do the stations you receive appear at the correct frequency markings on the dial? If not, there might be an alignment problem.
Did you check the local oscillator frequencies by listening on another radio as mentioned in an earlier posting above?
