Not quite sure what you mean by this. I should solder the connection across the fuse, effectively using the 100 watt bulb parallel to the fuse? This will also require a new (unblown) fuse, right?

First thing I would do is remove the output transistors and see if the short goes away. If so you can easily test the transistors using the diode check on a multimeter.

I get this part. I will do this first because the connections are very easy to get to.. I don't even need to remove them from the sockets.

Is there a model number on the back of the entire unit?

According to the brochures that Doug posted a while back, this is model X8580H in 1967. The TV is Chassis number 25MC46Z, if that helps date this as a 1967?
