Very nice job. A real contrast between how easy the main chassis is to work on, vs how tightly the RF chassis is packed. Cleaned up very nicely and excellent workmanship! Hope grounding the RF chassis (braid strip?) rewards you with sound!
PS- Have a funny feeling that that shield does not belong on Detector-Audio tube . No way to ground it. Maybe belongs on the IF tube? the base shells of Loctal (Loktail?) tubes are grounded at the "tail".
