I had an Emerson like that one, only brown instead of cream colored. It had notable bass response for its being a table radio.

As for your electrolytic pi network you need to be sure the negative leads are returned exactly where the originals were--not merely returned where it fits conveniently. Also check the state of the capacitor sometimes found in old "hot chassis" radios that connects the common negative line to the chassis. If it is the original it can cause problems--including possibly going off with a loud pop and foil confetti everywhere.
