That's waht I would call an Ampzilla I, the II had peak lights.

Neither will drive 4R.

Due to the age any of them will need to be completely rebuilt, even the resistors stripped off the boards and replaced.

With better quality caps (junk the ceramic types) it will then hang in there with about anything modern (other than the inability to drive 4R well).

(it looks cool too)

Same things apply to the Son of Ampzilla as well, except that it can drive as low as 2R.
