+1 on the above comments. Definitely follow Ron R's instructions to place the power switch in the hot side of the chassis (25Z6 Plates and Heater) and have the "Neutral" at the B- "Mecca (- terminal of filter cap, 50L6 cathode resistor, 6SQ7 heater and cathode, etc.; and everyone's comment to replace the antenna, ground and chassis to "Mecca" with safety caps. The Neutral should have a wider blade (not thicker) than the Hot. I don't know if polarized plugs were popular back in the 40s.

Best Regards,
