Very nice radio, even with the wrong grill cloth. I've never seen a set like that. I agree with Ron. All the paper caps need replacing, and, check all resistors. Audio transformers should also be checked for opens. I've even seen partially open transformers that still somewhat worked on remainning windings.
Very nice find.
