I don't know if the radio is for 110/117V and you might have 120V, so some bucking might be in order, but Zenith is known for using smaller transformers than the rest, so it might be natural for it to get warmer.
Again, it is an old radio and probably should not be driven hard
Another way to deal with it, a quiet fan, 12V or so, exhaust or blow doesn't matter. Aim it at the hottest part, although general circulation action is also helpful.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
