Looks like you didn't change all the capacitors. Also, you might use a little more heat when soldering the solders look a little cold. Everyone was right when they said you should recap it, if not the magic smoke would have escaped sooner or later. I would look for shorts and make sure you put the caps in correctly and replace all the wax and paper caps. Since it worked before there must be a short for it to do this, I would think. Good Luck.
