What are you using on that radio as an FM antenna? I don't know what stations you normally receive in your area, but the radio should get some stations on FM if it is working at all. If the FM antenna is OK, then I'd look at the FM RF amplifier tube; that might be the problem if it is weak or nearly dead (in a 50+-year old radio I wouldn't be surprised if the tube is very weak).
