You are spot on! 
I now see the IF's 12, 16 (I would have never spotted them) in the chassis and the coil I pictured is in the can marked by #2.
 I paid $10 for this as you can imagine it is in pretty rough shape and the 35 was not there and a 24 was in its place, The original speaker is gone and a PM was put in.
I have recapped except for the #23 Capacitor Block as I have no info on that.
It powers up and I can get some static as I touch components so I think the Audio part is ok, here are the Socket Voltage readings that I took the one that looks really out of line is the control grid on the 24 2nd detector I get nothing.

Thanks!!!!
