Hello Alan,
First all that radio looks great so far !
So C38B 40ufd capacitor ?
What i would do with no power applied is to take some resistance readings to make sure there is no shorts and check every tube again it sounds like Audio amp section could where the issue lays it looks like you replaced a lot of resistors and Mica capacitors double check and triple check everything .

Sincerely Richard
